Home My WebLink AboutGem Estates Project FileMeridian City Hall .5. April 201, 1981 Agenda 5 (Cont'd) the Council decided to hook that up then they would have to come up with funding for those checkers and probably for the main lift station." Kingsford: "So you are saying the sewer would be routed on down Franklin, to Black Cat and then pressurized over - that there will never be a total gravity line?" Orton: "That is correct. Gravity lines will follow the drainages - that was the plan." r ;,-Agenda 6 I v, Mayor: "Earl do you have any comments? Ward: "That the topography and that's what we have out there - if you go for a regional you go for a lot of little lift stations, for individual pockets." Orton: "How many of these are in the current plan?" Ward: "Off -hand I would say around a half of dozen - depends how far you want to go." Orton: "And of course if we change our Urban Service Planning Area several of those will be dropped out if we drop that south-western portion on Urban Service Planning." Orton: "Our current Comprehensive Plan calls for this to be industrial use?" Morrow: "It does" Mayor Glatsyer called for further comments. Fire Chief Welker: "Relating to the statement on the Fire sprinkling, there is other things to take into consideration. One is the type of the building, the other is the water flow demand and supply available for sprinkler systems and fire fighting and the third is that we don't have the equipment. We don't have the equipment for an area this size and require a purchase of another fire truck." Chief of Police Nichols: "The Police Department will need more people to cover for patrol." Brewer: "I do not like being so negative that we can't overlook some of these things - granted, I know our Police Force might be slim and our Fire Department aren't prepared, but these people are not about to come out and develop all 135 acres of this off the cuff anyway. I can't help but keep thinking that supposedly growth pays it's own way and if we sit here and continue to vote negative and say it's not going to pay it's own way - we are never going to get a blasted thing here in town. I think if this is to grow in parcels, if it goes, and the City starts reaping some of the benefits then we can afford to do a few of these things that the area is going to require - and I'll gamble on it." Mayor: "What do you estimate the evaluation to be at completion?" Knickrahm: "Probably around one-half million per acre - that's fairly conservative. Say a 60,000 sq. foot warehouse including land might be a million and a quarter to a million and one-half - that would consume outside, parking etc. Times that with 135 acres - so you are talking about 60 million dollars on a conservative estimate." Orton: "Their land use conforms for planning, their sewer proposal seems to conform to our planning - I'm sure they will follow -the water plan." The Motion was made by Orton and seconded by Brewer that Linder Industrial Park Annexation request and Zoning "D" Industrial be approved. Motion Carried: Kingsford, yea; Orton, yea; Brewer, yea Williams, nay Williams: "I don't think the numbers are there. I think this Council should very well sit down and look at the 1% and run some numbers on some of these projects and find out what it costs. I'm a businessman, like these gentlemen are, and I will not invest in something that's going to cost me $1,000 and then I sell it for $500.00. I think we have some facts very, very wrong and should look at some numbers."' Mayor: "Gentlemen you are now Annexed." Hearing Closed Gem Estates Final Plat Mayor: "Our Engineer Gary Smith is not present tonight but I understand he has no problem with the Final Plat. Earl?" Ward: "All they have not completed, as far as I'm concerned,is the payment repair. I °have no idea what the cost, willbe.' Ih i .� to b� 1 y t I • 0 P Meridian Cid Hall .6. _ April 20, 1981 Agenda 6 (Cont'd) Attorney Crookston: "The only question that was raised when I talked to Gary was whether or not Gem Estates Hearing prior to Subdivision approval. And the question came up whether they had Final Plat approval back in 1973. They will have to go through that Hearing procedure again." Kingsford: "Is there any way at all for the City to go ahead and grant this Final Plat? How does it benefit us - because it sure isn't what they originally set out to have - or even close. I can see it benefiting the owners - in what way would it benefit us to Final Plat?" Crookston: "It will be easier to discuss that property as Lot and Block." Kingsford: "The Reeves Estate is still included as Lot 2 Block 2, -" Crookston: "Well that's the other question as to whether all the property owners have signed this plat. This is the biggest question." There was more discussion concerning the fact that the Final Plat had or had not been approved or filed. The Motion was made by Kingsford and seconded by Brewer to Table Gem Estates Final Plat until the next meeting. Motion Carried: Williams yea; Brewer, yea; Kingsford, yea; Kingsford, yea Agenda DEPARTMENT REPORTS: 7 WasteWater Sup't Earl Ward: "The progess on the Locust Grove sewer line is satisfactory. They will have a problem though, if they don't come up with the railroad crossing easement - they are going to have to stop." Fire Chief Welker: "The more people we take in the more need some pre -planning on equipment." Agenda 8 Mayor Glaisyer: "We have an Interim billing from J -U -B Engineers, Inc. for the HUD Community Block Grant Application, the sewer rehab on the older part of town. The Motion was made by Kingsford and seconded by Williams that the billing from J -U -B Engineers, Inc. for HUD Community Block Grant Application request in the amount of $1,437.57 be approved. Motion Carried: Williams, yea; Kingsford, ,yea; Brewer, yea; Orton, yea Agenda OTHER BUSINESS: 9 Under other business Brewer commended Leroy Nelson, the operator of the Meridian Speedway, on the opening day races. Brewer stated Nelson had the track interior looking better and that speedway had been handled professional. Orton reported that"they did have a test on Locust Grove Well and it is showing unacceptable levels of iron and tepidty, those are perameters that may disappear after a lot of pumping. We will just keep an eye on that." Orton: "The bids were let on the water project on East Carlton and he is about 80% done at this point. He was the low bidder and come forward with his bonds (Dean Crane Construction, Huntington, Oregon). We have two houses on that line that hooked up from behind previously - this water line will be out in front. At least one of those property owners got this project confused with the HUD project and thought that this project was going to put the service line from their property line to the old meter, which would be on private property. The intent of this project is not to do that - we bring the line to the property line and install a new leader if necessary. Bruce Stuart: "I've got her squared away on that" Orton: "We'll drop that now" Orton: "We took bids on the equipment. If we sell all the equipment that was reasonably priced we end up with about $4,800. The items that we did not get decent bids on were pumps, motors and discharge bases which we'll scrap out for more than was bid on them. In the bid which we haven't aborted at this point was the Pick Up and the old dump truck. The Pick Up we had in our budget this year to replace anyway but the dump truck is somewhat of a question - do we want to sell it, we are only going to get $235.00 - that's why we haven't awarded the bid yet. We need a good dump truck P Absent: Bruce St Gary Vez Bever Dr • Hehi Jung 23, 1975 le C*airmafi, W.

November 13, 1979 lenda 3 Dave Reeves - regarding property - 711 W. Pine. Reeves stated that the 4-Plex on the corner of 7th and W. Pine is an infringement to his property. There are 4 units that the contractor was allowed to build 6 feet from his property line at the rear of the building; the renters in Reeves house are mad,as this 4-Plex looks into the kitchen, bedrooms, etc., no privacy at all; the lawn is damaged; the builder refuses to put up a fence; they are building a deck and stairway from the top of the two story 4-Plex and no matter what type of fence this stairway is looking right into their windows; the lot is only 67X105, the wooden fence to the south is not on the property line, but 15 feet back towards the 4-Plex. There is only 6 feet to the foundation on the south and the east side from the property line. The required setback distance was discussed. It was thought that the height of this building would require a greater setback from back property line. It was not determined if the minimum is spelled out in the Ordinance. The Motion was made by Orton and seconded by Mitchell that the Commission request the Council review the Dave Reeves' matter with the Building Inspector in compliance of the Ordinances. Motion Carried: All yea. Reeves stated that he felt the City should keep a plot plan on the contractors to make sure they comply with approved plan. 1. Benda 4 Morgan and Marilyn Plant property - 28 acres at 1150 W. Overland. Morgan Plant stated that they currently have some active interest in the purchasing of this property, intended use is Light Industrial Park. Property is adjacent to the west of Mountain View Equipment. Their property is bare field and runs around the 6 acres of William Spear. The Vet and Spear properties have a common boundary. Plant is north of the Spear property. Plant asked for feedback on sewer, water and annexation. Sharp stated that the Plant property is not contiguous with the City at any point. If Fountain View Equipment would be willing to come in, annexation could be considered. The proposed location of sewer line was discussed. Jim Halley, Harm Bureau Realty was present and introduced Bruce Johnson, Santa Clara, California, who has the option to purchase the Morgan property. Johnson explained that his company is a mortgage banking company and real estate developing of office .buildings and industrial properties. He stated they have a project that is moving their project in total,to this area. Their concern is the ability to build this project at this.location. Johnson explained that he favored this location rather than a Boise City Limit, as the park here could have better controls; landscaping, setbacks, etc. It is important that they do have City sewer and water. The Commission felt there was no problem with zoning. Sharp stated_ when the City built the Comprehensive Plan, that is the type of industry we were looking for; good, clean Light Industry. - The City Clerk was instructed to place Mr. Johnson's proposal on the City Council Agenda.. The Motion was made by Tewksbury and seconded by Orton that the Commission allow the Committee, as formed from the realtors, developers, surveyors, and engineers to review the existing proposed Zoning and Development Ordinance in preparation of the new Ordinance, section by section, develop their recommendations on the Ordinance; that the Planning and Zoning Commission meet with two (2) of their Committee people for five (5) meetings beginning January, 1980, the representatives of the Committee and the City of Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission be requested to use the format of the existing proposed document. Motion Carried: All yea. 0 Decembet^ `10,, ' 1979 Meeting called to order by Chairman Don Sharp at 8:06 P.M. Members present: Rick Orton, Annette Hinrichs, Burl Pipkin, Lee Mitchell, Ken Tewksbury, absent. Others attending.: Rex J. Black, David,L. Reeves, Cecil Thomas, Carl Stewart, Ernest Lombard. bt.. The minutes of the previous meeting stand approved as read. (. Agenda 1 Dave Reeves 711 W. Pine - Gem Estates .Reeves referred to list `of questions and statements of research that had been distributed to each member and stated he had talked to his attorney after appearing before the City Council without satisfaction. Reeves presented complaint of Gem Estates:illegal development, (on 'file with these minutes.) Sharp commented that the .Commission did not have time to research. He questioned that there was anything the Commission could do, reminding Reeves they are a -recommending body rather than a decision.body, Time was needed to research and,answer questions. -,Hinrichs stated that this body is aware of unfavorable situatton,, but there was ' 'nothing the Commission could do about it now. .' Orton reviewed the problem of an adjoining builder constructing a 4.-Plex (2 -stoat) giving exposure to Reeves house and asked if the Buidling Inspector had investigated. The City Clerk stated Vern Schoen had been contacted and that the foundation of the 1,4 -Flex was:16 feet from Reeves property line which is within regulation. 'Reeves stated this is not all the facts. First of all, this building does not meet the high density requirements of the City of Meridian, it is better than 20'units per acre, Hinrichs stated that this was approved for multi -family before the Comprehensive Plan was adopted and that this type of development is exactly what this Commission had been striving to prevent: This body had no jurisdiction as the density was already approved in 1975. Pipkin stated that some of the outlined questions imply that this Commission would have some type of authority. He commented that this authority would be f the Cit (4Council's. One possibility would be an injunction against the structure Plex' and the +construction of the stairs. Reeves.stated that if the City cannot enforce the regulations they have in effect right now, then we don't need the City Administration, If every citizen has got to take his case to court to get an answer, there is something wrong with the administration. Sharp explained that Gem Estates. did not come in under the current Comprehensive Plan and the requirements and limitations imposed by that, This was an approved ' development in 1975, 3 years prior to adoption of the Comprehensive Plan. They did set maximum densities. Reeves agreed, but stated the developer is not living up to what was approved five gears ago, referring to the plot that was approved at that time. Pipkin stated that if the City is not responding in a manner he desires, this would be a matter of taking them (City) to court and having them (City) co-respondents in addition to the constructor, or owner of that property. The City would- have to show good cause as to why they have not enforced their own or and if'the court is not satisfied with it, then of course the court would invite the order to enforce the ordinance, cease the operation and whatever else is necessary, Pipkin stated that this problem is out of the Commission's i hands and they could do Reeves no service. Mitchell staled that the City Council has to be the final enforcer of anything approved. Reeves stated he did not obtain any.satisfaction with the City Council and wanted to make the Planning and Zoning aware that the City is not enforcing the �_ —77 - Meridian Planning and Zoning .2..

The Building Inspector says that this.(Gem Estates) is an illegal' subdivision so that plot doesn't count. If the plot doesn't count and the builder 'does not have to build according to that, then he has to meet the density codes of the present plan, which is a maximum of 15 on a high density area. He 'is allowing 20.. What authority does the Building { I-nspector have to approve those plans, he is taking it upon himself. i Mitchell stated that the City has access to legal councel,where the Commission does not. They sympathize with Mr. Reeves, but the Commission can only recommend.*. Sharp stated this matter should be referred on to the City Council's legal advisement. Reeves.questioned that if the City Council sees fit,then there is nothing the Planning and -Zoning can do about it. 4 TMe Commission explained that the City Council can override any of their i recommendatigns and must make the legal decisions, f. Reeves stated that he appreciated the.position that the Planning and Zoning Commission is in., but something needs to be done to give the Planning and Zoning more of the say there needs to be checks and W!ances. r Hinrichs stated that they (Planning and Zoning) are appointed and they do not "have that much power. Sharp stated that he thought the State limits the authority that can be given.to a Planning and Zoning. 'Commission. = f Hinrichs.stated that the Council considers any matter before they do overrule. Reeves stated, then, on any matter that the City chooses to disregard present laws, State laws and so forth, it is beyond the Planning and.Zoning Commission's control. He had researched and found out that Gem Estates is an illegal subdivison' = and cannot be divided, lots sold off are illegal. It is against State law to sell ^4 off lots on an.unplatted piece of land. This has not been recorded in Ada County. He had been to Ada County and the Attorney General has written the City of Meridian informing them that this is an illegal subdivision - it continues to operate - they continue to allow 4-Plexes'to go up in violation. He felt that the City Council r and,the Planning and Zoning has to work together and that the Planning and Zoning does have some obligation, if not legally, morally, to tell the City Council we d9n't like what is going on. The City Council can override tW commi°ssiontiF butnot :State Qdilding Inspector does not have authority to authorize construction upon illegally solei off lots. He stated he would take Planning and Zoning Commission advise and go .before the Council: Hinrichs reminded Reeves that this body has not researched this matter, but would in behalf of the new zoning ordinances. Sharp stated that this development was all done under metes and bounds. ReeOes stated that since the new Mayor has-been. in, there has been a -mass building F project down there. Things have set down there since 1975, but since Joe has been Mayor, over'40% have had construction started on them and they are all illegal. They, do not comply with the plot approved in 1975. Something is going on. Citizen Carl Stewart spoke from those attending, stating that in his experience with government, that if this subdivision had not been recorded, they were certainly: building illegally, "M- U-4.4-- —A- '4.- U-;+nhnll on..4 dennnAna .Ihv D4nL,4n that thn (lava Dnnunc matter' this Hayne Crookston9 City Attorney,;presented a Union Pacific Railroad matter, Tho Notion was made by Marvin Bodine and aeoonded by Grant Kimmge2ord that tha City resolve tb, auathorize the Mayor to sign the easement document, in the form of a resol® cation of easement to place City service lines across Rmilracd ]dight-af-ter and the City will pay 0200.00 for this easement on a standard prrocqdwo of the Railroad Comp.

'Ja Councilmen present: Richard Williams, Grant Kingsford, Bill Brewer, Marvin.Bodine Others present: Claudette Young, Roger Welker, Bruce Stuart, Earl Ward, Ray Sotero, Vern Schoen, Jeff V. Kunz, Reuel Smith, Gary Smith, Roger Sherwin, Jim Coleman, Doug Nichols, Kevin Robertson. Minutes of the previous meeting were approved with the correction of Agenda 7, inserting quotes of statement of Don Leavitt for entire paragraph. Engineer report - Gem Estates Gary Smith, J -U -B Engineers, Inc. stated that Gem Estates Subdivision exists within the City -boundary on a metes and bounds basis. This was not formally platted,at the time, by the developer and was developed lot by lot over the last several years. The development plans were done which included the street plat profile design, sanitary sewer and domestic water. These items were all constructed and approved by the various agencies. It has now been brought to the attention of the City that Gem Estates is not a formally recorded subdivision. Smith recommended that the City require the developer to formally record it. `The developer needs only to break down into a simple Final Plat because.the development portion of the subdivision has been constructed, it's there, and to go back and resurrect allr:that-�,.- was':. done at that time, will not add anything to the situation, there would be no benefit!* Smith stated that as a condition of the Final Plat, several conditions should be set forth: (1) The boundary be certified as to its dimensions, the distances and variances. (2) Each lot that has been developed, be defined and certified to its dimensions, and also that the developer provide the City with copies of correspondence from all of the approving agencies; Central District Health, Ada County Highway District, and.Department of Health and Welfare, that all the improvements have been made according to plans and specifications are acceptable to them. Smith stated that this would eliminate this problem of a metes and bounds subdivision, Each property owner will have to sign off as an owner for the Plat. Crookston stated that as long as the lot owner signs off, this can be recorded. Williams questioned the lots being platted when the subdivision was metes and bounds originally. Crookston stated that the metes and bounds description of the entire parcel will include the varying smaller metes and bounds descriptions. The owners of the smaller metes and bounds description will have to sign off and thus be converted into lot and block. Kingsford asked specifically what the problem was. Smith stated that there is a State Code that requires a plot that is broken into more than four parcels is a subdivision. Part of the requirement for a formal subdivision is that they be recorded. The Motion was made by Williams and seconded by Kingsford to instruct Engineer, Gary. Smith to propose a letter to Jack Dowdle and inform him of recommendations and requirements of Gem Estates Subdivision to be platted and recorded. Motion Carried: Williams, yea, Kingsford, yea, Brewer, yea, Bodine,:yea., Claudette Young - Spud Hut & Lounge - Beer & Wine License Renewal. Mayor Glaisyer briefed the Council of the fact that Ms. Young had come before the Council two months previously requesting Beer & Wine License for 1979. In the meantime, most of the Council has viewed the Spud Hut and are more of the opinion that it is a lounge and not a restaurant as they were led to believe. The Chief of Police has not had the time to review the 1980 license application. Brewer stated that he felt Ms. Young had misrepresented the establishment with the Chief of Police and found that the appearance was that of a bar. ridian City Hall .3. November 19 1979 genda 4 Dave Reeves - 711 W. Pine. Reeves stated that the 4-Plex on the corner of 7th and W. Pine is an infringement to his property. There are 4 units that the contractor was allowed to build six feet from his property line at the rear of the building; the renters in Reeves house are made, as this 4-Plex looks into the kitchen, bedrooms, etc.,, no privacy at all, the lawn is damaged, the builder refuses to put up a fence, they are building a deck and stairway from the top of the two story 4-Plex and no matter what type of fence,this stairway is looking right into their windows, the lot it a only 67 X 105, the wooden fence to the south is not on the property line, but 15 feet back towards the 4-Plex. There is only six feet to the foundation on the ' south and the east side from the property line. Reeves stated that the outcome has caused considerable damage and'felt that the property would be best used for his business rather than a residence. It was not feasible at this time, but he is considering the request for a Conditional Use. Reeves stated that the Building Inspector should have a means of checking the builders compliance of approved plans. ';Agenda 5 Cherry Lane Village West Preliminary Plat - Lampe Annexation. Gene Wright, J -U -B Engineers, was present, representing Leavitt-NuPacific. This property was annexed July 16, 1979 as Lampe Annexation. Wright stated that Leavitt desires to exercise his option on this property, but requires approval of the Preliminary Plat. This was denied by Planning and Zoning November 13, 1979. Wright stated that the City's goals are exactly the same as Mr. Leavitt's, quality development and the second nine holes on the golfcourse. The second nine holes cannot be built until there is a cash flow from the lots sold in #3. He stated that they request the City to allow Mr. Leavitt to do what he does best; to make a successful project out of Cherry Lane Village. If the tentative is approved, Leavitt will exercise his option by December 31, 1979. Wright stated there is currently a lift station that pumps up and down into Cherry Lane Village #2. This would be abandoned and gravity flow of the west, and move the lift station. There would not be anymore lift stations at least. Leavitt has agreed to put a domestic well with this phase, school site is provided, two laterals piped in cooperation with Nampa -Meridian Irrigation. Gary Smith commented on length of blocks and streets, should comply with Fire Department. Width of street right-of-way should be 60' for future planning. Lift station is shown at the end of Puma Dr. Wright stated that it will go back up to the existing pressure Tine.and on over to Cherry Lane #2. The flag lots were to avoid access onto incline Way where there will be quite a bit of traffic coming off Cherry Lane. It is the intent that the Protective Covenants be the same. The school's master site plan shows a school site in this plan. A domestic well would be put in with Cherry Lane #3. Wright stated that they go with the 50 foot right -0f -way and a 5 foot right-of-way easement on each side, this allows setting homes a little closer to the street. The setback is from the 50 foot, not the 60 foot right-of-way. The Motion was made by Bodine and seconded by Kingsford that Cherry Lane Village West Preliminary Plat #3 be denied. Motion Carried: Bodine, yea, Kingsford, yea, Brewer, yea, Williams, nom. Wright questioned reason for denial. It was the feeling of Bodine that this was bringing the last piece in and putting it forward. Kingsford stated he basically supports Planning and Zoning's recommendation. Bodine agreed. Williams stated that there will be economic hardships resulting from this denial of Preliminary Plat. He felt the merits of the plat were not considered and this was unreasonable.

The Mayor broke the tie by voting yea. Steve Bowman - Williamsen Truck Equipment Variance request. Bowman requested that the stipulation that Williams Truck Equipment not be allowed temporary water and sewer system, be removed. Their intention is to begin building immediately and will build an adequate temporary system with dry lines so that they will hook on when the City systems are available. Bowman stated they have every intention of hooking up to City sewer and water and they have expressed this in recent meetings and letters. Santa Clara has the same deadline as far as Bowman knew. John Cooknell representing Gateway South Association stated that they will meet with Nampa -Meridian Irrigation's Attorney and they are drafting an agreement to allow a crossing of the water line on Eight Mile'and the final document is then presented to the BOR. The Nampa -Meridian and BOR makes .their final site inspection., The hearing process of BOR on Ten Mile Drain takes approximately two months. They are aiming to have this completed before the water table rises. The permits for the Interstate crossing have not been obtained yet. Cooknell stated all parties involved in the Gateway South Association are now in the process of signing the agreement (Association) and Willaimsen Truck Equipment has verbally agreed to do the same. Bowman stated he is absolutely committed to hook on immediately when services are available. Rich Terrill, President of Chamber of Commerce, spoke asking the Council to grant variance of the stipulation of temporary water and sanitary system for Williamsen Truck Equipment and Santa Clara Plastic, although Santa Clara is not before the Council at this time, providina that they hookup to the City system within the two year period. Terrill stated this development would be a benefit to the City and the Chamber felt the City would not be setting a precedent as this is a certain situation at a certain time. The Motion was made by Brewer and seconded by Williams that the Counicl grant a variance with a stipulation that Williamsen Truck Equipment be hooked up to City sewer and water by January 1, 1982, or prior to that if it comes available. Motion Carried: Williams, yea, Kingsford, yea, Brewer, yea, Orton, yea. Orton reminded Bowman that hookup fees are due upon obtaining building permits. Attorney Wayne Crookston, Jr. - Gem Estates. The matter of Gem Estates, brought to the City Council by Dave Reeves, 777 W. Pine, is being studied regarding 4-Plexes. Crookston requested that it be tabled until March 3, 1980. Dave Reeves stated that he had no objection to the postponement. J I � Meridian City Hall .4. Janus 21, 1980 Dave Reeves.questioned "that with the Boy Scout and Deseret Industries going in on E. Overland, is the Time For Two drinking establishment the . proper blend, he realized it (proposal) would be an improvement over what we have now, but is it what we want as an end result?" Foley responded that the new establishment was committed 75% to dining, the people and the purpose of their going there would be an improvement. The Time For Two and Roho situation, as exists, now can continue to do so indefinitely under Grandfather Rights. Brewerstatedthe stipulation is 300 feet from a church and there is quite a distance from the LDS proposal. Martin Igo read a letter of support from Winston Moore to the Mayor and City Council. Letter is on file with these minutes. Laura Connor, speaking as a citizen of Meridian, commended the proposal as an improvement and encouraged support. The Mayor cautioned the Council to be aware of the Impact Area Hearing to'be held the next evening. The Annexation of the Roho property is in conflict with the Impact Agreement. He suggested tabling the proposal until hearing the public's feeling of the Impact Agreement. Foley stated that he appreciated the Council's position on the Impact Area, but his. research indicates the State of Idaho has granted to any City one mile radius jurisdiction. This must form any agreement with the County, if there are other concerns,, they would prefer tabling. The Motion was made by Williams that the Rainey -Kuhl Annexation be tabled until the first meeting in.February. The Motion died for lack of a second. The Motion was made by Brewer and seconded by Orton that the Rainey -Kuhl Annexation "C" Commercial, be approved with the condition that before Preliminary Plat, there is positive committment for water and sewer across the Interstate, adequate buffering, detailed landscaping with design review, and meet all City requirements. Motion Carried: Brewer, yea, Kingsford, yea, Orton, yea, Williams, nay Agenda 6. Dave Reeves - Gem Estates Reeves stated he was before the Council concerning the building of four-plexes in Gem Estates and wanted to point out what has been happening in this subdivision. Reeves stated "in 1975 Gen Estates was approved as four-plexes, not variances were granted, and apparently there wasn't a density code at that time. Somewhere along the line, somebody decided it would be developed as you go process. The State law requires all property broken up into five or more parcels of land, that there be a plat filed with Ada County. In 1978 the City of Meridian was notified by a letter generated by the Assessor's office that Gem Estates Subdivision was an illegal subdivision, this letter is on file, filed under Gem Estates. Apparently no action has beentaken on that letter. I don't know why, it appears it is too late to file it now as the property has already been sold, it's no longer under the control of the developer. I own one lot, of which a four-plex has gone up six feet off the property line. In 1978 or approximately, it was adopted to the Comprehensive Plan which places R-15 on that property. Those lots are 6,900 feet. It doesn;t meet the criteria for four-plexes. Now, if that is an illegal subdivision and you throw it out, then it has to meet the density code of the new Comprehensive Plan which will allow a duplex to go on those lots. I have a map drawn up by J -U -B that shows how these four-plexes were originally approved. (Reeves displayed map) All the correspondence in your files indicate there would be no parking from Pine or Broadway and it refers to this as a subdivision not under metes and bounds. This darkened area on here shows access way to the rear of the building for parking under, if you notice the buildings that went upon Broadway, this whole development was supposed to be the same. Somewhere along the way somebody has decided they didn't have to follow this plan and it was changed. What I am asking you today, is if you are not goina to follow this plan, then you have to fall under the density code. This property (indicating property adjacent to 777 W. Pine) was sold to Dunbar since the Comprehensive Pian 0 Meridian City Hall 5. January 21, 1980 has been in affect, there is no Grandfather Clause on that property because when the property was sold off, this is the description of mine and it doesn't show it as a part of the subdivision, it"s like any other lot that you buy downtown because the man never filed a plat. If it's a single property and he puts in for a building permit today, I don't care what was approved in '75, he's got to meet todays building requirements, and this hasn't been done. To give you an example of the inconsistencies, I have a copy of the minutes of Planning and Zoning and Bob Erland came before them and asked to put a tri-plex behind the Window ,Box. He was told the standard setback for the rear of the building is 15 feet. The four-plexes down here (rem Estates) is 6 feet. He indicates the Building Inspector needed a five foot variance because.he was building 10 feet off of the property line. I have researched the Building Code and they don't say what the rear is. If he (Erland) has to have a 5 foot variance because of a City policy to have 15 feet in the rear, then so does this (Gem Estate's). Secondly, he (Erland) was told he didn't meet the density code and he would have to combine the Window Bos lot and the property behind so that he would be overall 2 units per lot. The lots at the Window Box is 6,400 feet. The lots up here (Gem Estates) is 6,900 feet. If he can't put a tri-plex down there, then you sure can't put a four-plex up here on, these (Gem Estates). We need to do something to make the building consistent. One person shouldn't have the advantage over the other. The people on Pine are upset, I rent m lace out and m renters are mad P YP Y as the lawn has been dug up. The Police won't do anything about it because it is a Civil matter, the Mayor was busy when I went to the bank to talk to him, there has to be some way the Council, the City, or somebody listens to the average person, it can't be just the developers. The density codes been broken, the man didn't file a plat, no variance was granted, but yet it continues, I don't think it's right. I am asking the Council to show the residents they are doing to do something about it and it's not going to happen again." Orton asked Reeves what he was trying to get at. As the result of all of his research, what sort of action is he requesting. Reeves stated he wanted some type of action taken so that the people will know that the Council is not going to allow it to continue. Orton questioned if there had been any action requesting the developer to file a plat. The Mayor stated no one on this Council had known anything about this until Mr. Reeves brought the problem up. ,.Reeves maintained it did not. There was discussion concerning comparison of the Erland property. Reeves stated he purchased the Roy Woods property from Carl Williams ,just prior to the start of construction of the four-plex adjacent. His plan is to leave the house as it stands. His title is as a single piece of property. Mayor Glaisyer asked Wayne Skiver if he could explain why this was not platted in 1975. Skiver stated that part of Gem Estates was platted while he was on City Council and this was approved at the time pending approval of Central District Health for septic tanks. When he left the Council, they still hadn't approved all of it. To his knowledge, Central District Health had never approved septic tanks and at the time, the City was not allowing anymore connections to the sewer system as it was already overloaded. He stated he was assuming they hooked on anyway. Williams stated that this was approved on metes and bounds and referring to the letter of the Assessor in 1978, the City has no control of the sales of property. The County Recorder does in fact notify the owners and demand the owners filing of the plat. Reeves stated he had called the County Prosecutor's office and Mr. Connolly stated it was the City's responsibility to enforce the laws. Williams pointed out the letter was contrary to this information. Reeves stated somebody has the responsibility. flaisyer read from the minutes of May, 1975 stating of approval. Crookston recommended that this problem be taken under advisement. He felt this was the Assessor's responsibility. 14, Meridian City Hall .6. January 21, 1980 The Motion was made by Williams and seconded by Brewer that Mr. Reeves' request to place responsibility of the legality of Gem Estates Subdivision be taken under advisement until February 4, 1980 Council. Meeting. Motion Carried: Williams, yea, Kingsford, yea, Brewer, yea, Orton, yea. Building Inspector Schoen stated that the setback requirements are by City Ordinance. Four-plexes are 6 feet, anything else is 4 feet. The usual operation is 5 feet setback. Agenda 7 Restaurant Inspections Tom Turco explained the process of Restaurant Inspections in the City. The last several years Central District Health has had a contract with the City and inspects four times a year to maintain the grading ordinance. This year the contract is $600.00. Turco has put together a fee schedule and presented this schedule to the Council. They will issue permits,but the City Hall will collect the fee. The Mayor thanked Turco for the help in this matter. Williams stated that he thought the fees were reasonable and the City was getting an excellent service from Mr. Turco and Central District Health. The Motion was made by Williams and secondeddby Orton that the Council direct Attorney Crookston, Jr. to prepare a Restaurant Fee Schedule Ordinance. Motion Carried: Williams, yea, Kingsford, yea, Brewer, yea, Orton, yea. Turco introduced Nancy Goodell who will be working with the City restaurant grading. Turco stated that they will inspect and issue the permit for the restaurant, leave at City Hall, inform the restaurant that the permit will be issued at City Hall upon receipt of fee. Agenda 8 Wayne Skiver reported that their area is having trouble getting their mail because of cars parked in front of clustered mail boxes. Kingsford inquired about enforcing through parking ordinance. Agenda 9 Mayor Glaisyer read Resolution #73 entitled: 'A RESOLUTION BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MERIDIAN, STATE OF IDAHO, AUTHORIZING JOSEPH L. GLAISYER, MAYOR, TO SIGN ALL APPLICATIONS, GRANT AGREEMENTS AND AMENDMENTS, AND OTHER DOCUMENTS RELATING THE WASTEWATER FACILITIES PLANNING AND CONSTRUCTION GRANTS." The Motion was made by Williams and seconded by Brewer that the rules and provisions of 50-9002 and all rules and provisions requiring that Resolutions be read on three different days, be dispensed with and that Resolution #73, as read be passed and approved. Motion Carried: Williams, yea, Kingsford, yea, Brewer, yea, Orton, yea. Agenda 10 Engineering Report: Gary Smith reported that Jim Coleman found that DVY Construction Contractor, Dewaine V. Young, was not receptive to deleting items from Contract Change Order No. 5. Jim Coleman's recommendation was to allow the two items to remain in the Change Order. There was discussion concerning negotiation with DVY Construction Co. on higher quality equipment than in original contract bid on water cooling system. This was something done by the manufacturer. Smith stated that Jim Coleman, Sumner Johnson, Dewaine Young, Butch and Project Superintendent met and there were concessions made on both sides. Item No. 5 and S-8 on Change Order No. 5 were both acceptable items according to J -U -B Engineers, Inc. leridian City Hall genda '6 lenda 7 r 0 .5. 0 r 15, 1980 Williams stated that this was purely land banking because there are no plans for the property to be developed by the present owners. The Motion was made by Williams that the denial be upheld. Motion died for lack of a second. Orton stated that this property has everything for annexation and Light Industrial is the best use. Brewer stated that he approves this proposal. Kingsford stated that he could only see one place that was contiguous. Mayor Glaisyer asked for comments from the public. There were none. ?` j' Attorney Wayne Crookston stated that the notice had not been published for a proper hearing, this is an appeal. Also, the legal must be changed from part "C" Commercial to all "D" Light Industrial. The Motion was made by Brewer and seconded by Orton to send the request for Arnold Annexation back to Planning and Zoning for further review. i Motion Carried: Kingsford. yea; Brewer, yea; Orton, yea; Williams, nay.

Motion Carried: Williams, yea; Kingsford, yea; Brewer, yea; Orton, yea. I Gem Estates Easements Jack Dowdle was present, requesting approval of Gem Estates Easements. Dowdle stated that the Preliminary had been passed with a 10' sewer easement, then J -U -B changed it to 1.6' sewer easement for the Final. Ward stated that the easement wasn't needed. There was discussion on the actual footage of the land for the easement. Kingsford suggested that they wait on a motion until the actual measurements had been taken. There was discussion as to who would pay for the added engineering services. Mayor Glaisyer asked for public comment. Dave Reeves stated that thirty days after plat approval, the City or County must see that the property is developed,as recorded. Attorney Wayne Crookston stated that it hadn't been initially plat approved. The Motion was made by Brewer and seconded by Orton that the City and Dowdle split the cost of the added engineering expense.

Orton: "I would like to ask the Council under the motion that's on the floor now, if they come back in with a client, can we avoid all hearings and business of annexation later on?" Williams: "That's what the motion said Rick." Crookston: "You have had one hearing, you can table it for however long you want to table it." Williams: "That's actually what the motion has done, taking it under advisement rather than tabling for a set date." Crookston: "Pre -annexation agreement itself, we have never approached -and I have never reviewed as to whether or not they are a good idea or not." Williams: "I question the legality of them because you are commiting future Councils. Under State Law, you can'.t do that. In essence, you are bonding it - there may be a grey area there." Mayor: "Any further questions from the Council?- There's a motion made and seconded to take the request for Arnold Annexation under advisement until any future potential users come before the Council. All those in favor?" Williams: "Aye." Kingsford: "Aye." Mayor: "Opposed?" Brewer: "Aye." Orton: "Aye." Mayor: "I'll break the tie and go with the motion.' Motion carries." Variance - 662 - 694 W.

He stated following the plot plan, measuring fromithe center of the street; the property line comes back into the lawn approxi- mately 4 feet. The fence will be 4 feet from the building - down 14 feet and back in. There is asphalt all the way around the four-plexes and vehicles were cutting through,so this will prevent trespassing as well as desirable for the tenants.

MR. CROOKSTON: I have sent a letter to the City; which the Council Members and Mr. Glaisyer have copies of. r Basically, the letter indicates that there were two basic problems at Gem Estates Subdivision as they concern David Reeves. First one is that there's a difference between how one of the four-plex units was constructed as compared to how the plans represented that it would be constructed. ' The plans represented that the -- basically, the driveway to the four-plex unit would be on the south side of the unit. JOHN W. & SUSAN G. GAMBEE, C.S.R.'s 10940Hollandale Drive Boise, Idaho 63705 3 As constructed, the unit has a driveway on the north side and runs out from the four-plex unit onto Main Street. A I basically felt that that was not a major ., deviation from the plans in that it's a rare situation that the City ever even approves such detailed development plans; that is, if you have a subdivision such as Cherry Lane or Sunnybrook 7 Farms, there's no designation on those plats as to which side $ the driveway is going to be on, or how many windows they are going to have, or anything like that. So, I didn't feel that it was a major deviation ,t. from the plans, and that if the developer had come in at the time of construction, or later on, or prior to construction, or 1$ whenever; the Council very easily could have approved the change. So, it is my recommendation that the Council adopt 16' the plans as actually constructed. On that problem. 8' The other problem is that the ordinances and statutes of the State of Idaho require that once a piece of property is divided into several parcels; whether it be by a metes and bounds description, or into a lot and block basis; tha it be subdivided, technically, that is of a plat filed and recorded with the County Recorder's office. In 1975 the developers of Gem Estates requested that from the City; that they be allowed not to plat Gem Estates at the time. The exact minutes of the meeting do not reflect that JOHN W. & SUSAN G. GAMBEE, C.S.R.'s 10940 Hollandale Drive Boise, Idaho 83705 4 e K , So, basically, my recommendations are two. One, tha Mr. Dowdle agreed to plat at a later time. Bpt, from my J014N W. 6 SUSAN G. GAMBEE, C.S.R.'s the City go ahead and, basically amend the development plans for 18940 Hollandale Drive 7 information that was provided to me, I understand that that was � $ Gem Estates as -- or to conform to how they were actually built; 5 at least as pertains to that particular four -plea on the corner the agreement; that he would plat when required to do so. � And, then, he also submitted a letter to Mr. Reeves x ` Mr. Dowdle and request him.to -- or require him to go ahead and -A that indicated that that was such. x u`47 plat Gem Estates Subdivision. �$ MR. GLAISYER: Thank you. Mr. Williams. So, I based my decision on that letter, plus what MR. WILLIAMS: We did send Mr. Dowdle that letter last my understanding was of what happened in 1975. % r a k ` So, really, the decision now is that the City, I °sf7 MR. CROOKSTON: He's been contacted. I haven't sent him think, should require Mr. Dowdle to go ahead and plat the A� a formal letter and Gary Smith,'City Engineer contacted me subdivision. K , So, basically, my recommendations are two.

WILLIAMS: We did send Mr. Dowdle that letter last year; did we not, requiring -- requesting that he plat this? °sf7 MR. CROOKSTON: He's been contacted. I haven't sent him A� a formal letter and Gary Smith,'City Engineer contacted me initially because he was directed to draft a letter. I interceded in that letter and requested him to not tia send it out and I -- was prepared for my signature, and I said 93�k. K , J014N W. 6 SUSAN G.

So, I don't think that he has been formally requested. He's aware of the problem, however. MR. KINGSFORD: What were the original plans that called for the Reeves property -- wasn't the Reeves property at that time, but for it to be included in that.development? MR. CROOKSTON: Well, the original owner of the property was Mr. Woods. And at the time various people have owned the property. The original plat, or proposed plat included what is now Mr. Reeves' house, and that's a problem that Mr. Dowdle is.going to have to take care of himself. He can either plat -- he can plat around it or he can plat the whole thing or however he can get it built. He'll have to come to the Council to get the approval of the plat and Council sign off so he can address that problem at that time. MR. GLAISYER: Any other comments from Council? MR. ORTON: Yeah. Wayne, are both parties; that is, Mr. Dowdle and Mr. Reeves I see in the back. Is Mr. Dowdle aware of these two recommendations? MR. CROOKSTON: Not that I'm aware of. I have not had any discussion with Mr. Dowdle. MR. ORTON: In your first recommendation to bring.the development plan up to date -- or have the ultimate development - JOHN W. & SUSAN G. GAMBEE, C.S.R.'s 10940 Hollandale Drive Boise, Idaho 63705 6 y ti V�g443 or have a new development plan prepared. Is your recommendation that we just have a drawing of what's existing? A record 14, drawing made up and then have that reviewed for its conformance with the original plan, and if it is in conformance, or if we �= judge it in conformance, just accepted? MR. CROOKSTON: Yes, if it -- you know, if the change in l the development plans causes no, you know, drainage problem or so long as it meets the code requirements for setback and things ` _vl , of that nature; that you go ahead and, basically, approve it in an as built form. MR. GLAISYER: Any other comments from Council? Any comments from the public? MR. REEVES: Yes, Council. I wouldn't have any objections to him platting it at a later date if he's willing to buy my property back at what I paid for it. But, I won't go along with him platting my property. They sold it off as a City lot and I don't really think it's right for me to be surrounded by four --pleas and take the financial loss because I have paid for a title search, and because; -he didn't plat it all. This didn't show up. If he had platted, it would have showed up and I wouldn't have bought it. I bought it as an investment property and I've lost in excess of $10,000 already because of the value depreciation. Nobody wants to buy a single-family home next to a JOHN W. & SUSAN G. GAMBEE, C.S.R.'s 10940 Hollandale Drive Boise, Idaho 63704 7 0 E 'Qur-plex. I*feel that he ought to, as the devtloper, because failed to plat it, he ought to buy the property back. I don't expect to make a nickel off of it, but he �Q:uld buy it back at what I paid for it. If this is not done, then I need to know, from the what I can do with that property; that I can recoup my cmlay from it. What are you going to allow me to do with it? Because, I don't feel that I should have to Lt4stand the financial loss because he failed to comply with t] MR*. GLAISYER: Thank you, Mr. Reeves. You are in a residential zone at this particular and the only thing you can do with your property is decide what you want to do with it, and come before the Council with a POitional use permit, obtain the type of use you want to use for. But, other than that, I don't think the City has any 1 action against Mr. Dowdle, or any recourse back to you, that matter. Council have any comments? MR. KINGSFORD: Mr. Mayor, I might, suppose ask Council. Wouldn't we have some recourse back to him at the '4 we asked him to plat; if this doesn't meet, substantially, ,his original proposed plat?

KINGSFORD: Where he's including the current Reeves property, or he did in his original plat. Wouldn't we have some recourse to require it be included when he comes in for this platting process that we are going to demand? MR. CROOKSTON: You can make any reasonable requirements * under your.subdivision ordinance of the plat that you deem �8 necessary. Basically, as I understand the Minutes, and as I `tt have read them, he -- the only thing that was not done at the u ' time in 1975 -- well, let me rephrase that. f .' He did everything that was necessary to file the , plat, except have a hardback plat prepared and have it signed off. All the other approvals as a final plat had been made. MR. KINGSFORD: But they included the parcel that we have in question? MR. CROOKSTON: Yes, it did. MR. KINGSFORD: But, it is my understanding, under current subdivision law we can't force him to plat that which he does not -currently own? ' MR. CROOKSTON: That's right. That's the situation that he knew was going to be coming up and he didn't protect himself in that matter. That's his problem. You know, if you tell me that you are going to do something and then, for some reason, you do something that makes JOHN W. & SUSAN O. GAMBEE, C.S.R.'s 10940 Hollandale Drive Boise, Idaho 83705 9 iy • 0 it impossible for you to do it, there's nothing that the City can do about it. ,kjr$ I mean, you've prevented yourself, and there are 4, some legal ramifications for your, you know, failure to -- in �r your contract when he sold the various parcels off that 6 subdivision, to say, you know, to have in his contract when I'm 7 required to plat, you have to sign off as a future owner. rd's' That's his problem. All I'm saying is that he can or the City can require him to plat -- 0 MR. KINGSFORD: That parcel? MR. CROOKSTON: -- that parcel. MR. GLAISYER: Mr. Brewer. MR. BREWER: I believe you said a few minutes ago, Counsellor, that Mr. Reeves should go to Mr. Dowdle with his ' problem and not the City? 1 MR. CROOKSTON: That's correct, for the objection -- for fi the comments that Mr. Reeves, the City is not concerned with $ those. 10 MR. GLAISYER: Mr. Reeves. MR. REEVES: We went to Mr. Dowdle first, and Mr. Dowdle 11 said that he submitted the building permits to the City Building Inspector. He approved them. So, therefore, it's .: the City's problem and not his. MR. CROOKSTON: Well, that's just a difference of �3 opinion, I guess. JOHN W. & SUSAN G. GAMBEE, C.S.R.'s 10940 Hollandale Drive Boise, Idaho 83705 10 F 1 MR. KINGSFORD: But, the last recourse would be us,.and we can force him to plat if'that's the desire of the Council? MR. CROOKSTON: It's his agreement that -- MR. KINGSFORD: But, we can force that. It had been included; that parcel? MR. CROOKSTON: Yes. MR. KINGSFORD: Okay. MR. GLAISYER: We will instruct -Mr. Dowdle to plat the subdivision, send you a copy of the letter, Mr.'Reeves, and then you'll have to approach back to Mr. Dowdle for any kind of compensation that you feel is needed. MR. REEVES: All right. MR. GLAISYER: Okay. Going back to Gentry Annexation -- MR. ORTON: Excuse me, Joe. What about the first recommendation of Wayne's? Do we want to make a motion regarding the record drawings or -- MR. GLAISYER: That's a good point. MR. ORTON: I believe that it is proper that it's usually required, most developments to submit record, or as -built drawings: So, I'd so move that we ask Mr. Dowdle to submit the as -built drawings, in addition to following through with his agreement to plat the subdivision. MR. WILLIAMS: Second. MR. GLAISYER: The motion is made and seconded to require JOHN W. & SUSAN G.
