View Stone Sample Types for New City Hall Building at Construction Office: Borton: So Council we have had an opportunity to go over and look at some stone sample types of block face and brick selections over at the Construction Office and so we will open it up for discussion on the record. If you are looking for direction on preferences of any of the components. Zaremba: I expressed an opinion while we were all standing there that I have now changed. I went and walked down the street a little bit and looked at them from the backside where the sun was shining on them and my opinion is now that my preference would be the set that was on the north or as most of us was facing on the right side. • • Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting May 15, 2007 Page 2 of 10 De Weerd: Mr. President. Borton: Madame Mayor. De Weerd: I didn't look at them from the other side because there was too much mortar sticking out, so I liked the bottom on the left and the two other layers on the right. Rountree: I will second that. Borton: The tally so far sounds like three for the two brick selections that were on the right side facing, I guess west. Then the block facing the bottom - I guess it is two to one. Zaremba: My opinion of the bottom blocks is not strong enough; if we are going that direction I would make it unanimous for the rest. Bird: The only thing that I am hung up on is I want the bottom left (inaudible) stone and I just want a decision and get this stuff ordered so we can get going. Borton: Council, I as well like the brick presentation on the right with the contrast, block on the base; the left is fine. It sounds like that is minimally incorporated into the current design as it is. Zaremba: The left base and the two right bricks, is that what we --? Borton: (Inaudible--). Councilman Rountree has to throw his two bits in. Rountree: Well, I second the comments from the Mayor that I liked the simulated rock on the left for the bottom and the top two courses of brick on the right. But, maybe we could get the product names and we could site the product names in a motion to approve that or do we have that? Bird: Mr. President. Borton: Mr. Bird. Bird: I believe that if I am not wrong this is what was specified wasn't it in the bids, Keith? Watts: The stone on the left is also going to be -they have come down in their price, they will match the other prices as well, so there won't be any more expense going with the actual stone. De Weerd: Oh, we love competition. Good job. • • Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting May 15, 2007 Page 3 of 10 Rountree: So what is that? Watts: That is the aristocrat, which is what was specked. Rountree: What is the brick? Christianson: This is Steve Christianson with LCA Architects. One is mutual materials and one is interstate and I want to say the one on the left was the interstate and that was the one that was specified. I think that if Council can say that they prefer - so we don't get confused on who made what brick; if you can go ahead and make a motion indicating that you prefer the alternate bid on the brick and then that will be clarified. Because I honestly don't know which one was interstate and which one was mutual materials brick. But, we clearly do have an alternate bid and a base bid. If the Council recommends that they prefer the alternate bid on the brick - Berg: That is the brick on the right. Christianson: That would be the brick on the right; that is correct. Rountree: Mr. President. Borton: Mr. Rountree. Rountree: I move that we approve the use of the aristocrat stone and the alternate brick courses for the exterior of the new Meridian City Hall. Bird: Second. Borton: Okay it has been moved and seconded to go with what Councilman Rountree just specified. Any discussion? Mr. Berg, roll call vote. Roll Call Vote: Rountree, aye; Bird, aye; Zaremba, aye; Borton, aye; ALL AYES. MOTION CARRIED. Item 4. Discussion of Meridian Development Corporation Streetscape Design Guidelines: Borton: Item 4 is a discussion of MDC's streetscape design guidelines, which were adopted by MDC late last week and tonight's presentation will be brought by MDC's administrator, Mr. Wardle. Wardle: Thank you Mr. President, Madame Mayor and Members of the Council, for the record, Shaun Wardle and I am the administrator for the Meridian Development Corporation. It is great to be back here at your Tuesday evening • Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting May 15, 2007 Page 4 of 10 City Council meetings, I can tell you that I wholeheartedly miss them every Tuesday and think about you repeatedly. I am here this evening to discuss a project that has been going on for some time and I am happy to announce that the Meridian Development Corporation has adopted a set of streetscape design standards. I am going to briefly go through a quick history and show you a little bit of the information that you have, give you some next steps and then take any questions. As you can see from the history in this process, the project began in 1928 with E. 1St Street being paved as part of the Highway 55 designation. In 1979 the Chamber of Commerce Committee formed to discuss the first improvements to E. 1St Street and through the years of 1982 and 1989 with a promise of a matching grant from then West One Bank, the Chamber of Commerce began to discuss making the current -what we see currently in Main Street a reality and so the City Council approved an LID, which is a local improvement district to finance 22 percent of the project. November of 1990 the City raised $905,000, applied for a grant which they did not receive, however, I note in July of 1991 that the City convinced the Idaho Transportation Department and the Ada County Highway District to increase their participation levels after moving the Highway 55 extension to Eagle Road. So, in March of 1993 it was built, the E. 1St Street improvements that we see today, which are now Main Street. So that is a little bit of the history behind the current improvements. We have had a number of meetings both through the community, public hearings for the Meridian Development Corporation as well as presentations to the Chamber of Commerce as well as other community groups and have had quite a bit of information. Part of the committee was the Parks Department, a very integral part of this process as well as the Planning Department; the Ada County Highway District was involved both at an administrative level as well as the technical and engineering level, the Transportation Department and a number of other players including the Chamber of Commerce and local businesses. We have had quite a bit of revision from the original draft and the product you see is really a byproduct of great community involvement and organization. The scope of this project is bound on the north by Carlton Avenue; on the west by Meridian Road; and on the south by E. Ada Street and on E. 3~d of the east. So, that really is the scope of what we are looking at for this project area for this streetscape design guidelines. Block prototypes -you have seen this before in a number of presentations, but I will just briefly describe -there are two block treatments, one being east and west and the other being north and south and they are differentiated by their type and use and essentially the movement of traffic. So, we see here dimensions for the north, south streetscape improvements and you see an elevation right here. One thing that I will say about this document is that this document was built to allow developers to have a blueprint for what their development should look like in addition to some of the demonstration projects that I will talk about in just a minute with the Meridian Development Corporation. So downtown developers that would like to purchase a piece of property to reinvest in their current piece of property really have the opportunity to look and see what their developments should look like and what treatments that they would need both in the right of way and within their specific development. It does i i Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting May 15, 2007 Page 5 of 10 allow flexibility for building type, building massing. It does not say that every building needs to be to the street front. It doesn't say that every single building needs an outdoor cafe. It allows them flexibility for them to do that, but it gives them a guideline. East, west streetscape improvements here -the one thing that it does and I am just going to scroll down to the call outs because the difference in this specific plan is that all of the call outs are dimensional as well as site furnishing street, trees and landscape improvements have all been denoted by our consultant the Land Group. As you can see there a number of items that can and will be allowed in the right-of-way and in the sidewalk -- bike rack, recycling and trash receptacle, standard tree, great drinking fountain, standard streetlight, bench seating, planter pots, ADA ramp and decorative ballards. We don't expect to see all of those elements in every single street phase; however, if those elements are included we have called out each specific individual type. In addition to that one of the items that the Parks Department was very integral in helping out with is a paver plan and we went round and round on the number of issues and I will real quickly there is a special addendum here to the specific concrete paver plan. As you can see it is very technical in engineering specification. This is designed to allow for the maximum stability of the pavers as well as allow for ease of maintenance within the downtown core. Street lighting standards -there are a number of heights that are specified. The difference between the east, west and the north, south corridor treatments, but each of those is specific to a lighting standard type. As we see here banner arms only three options specified for the specific banners. I will note that you see today as the Mayor has probably made you aware of the banners along Main Street with the Meridian's Promise, those look fantastic and we expect to see more banners of that type celebrating events and groups within our community. These lighting standards will allow that to happen. Tree grading -this is a current tree grading plan that we see. One of the things that it addresses is that this has been adopted by ACHD as their standard. The city is incorporated into their specific requirements. The one thing that it does is that it allows a tree box to be a certain number of feet down so that you don't see the root break up above the pavers, which we currently have in some of our city blocks and so this is attempting to really control the tree growth and the tree spread within that specific area. We see a specific landscape design standard as well as irrigation standard. One of the other issues is and that I know that the Parks Department has found when replacing some of the irrigation boxes downtown is they are not necessarily standardized from block to block, which creates some maintenance issues. This will allow them to specify those improvements. We have here, after a number of -after quite a bit of public input, the preference for recycled material within the bench standards as well as in material which was not metal. One of the discussions for the bench standards was the ability to utilize this recycle material, which does not heat up as much in the summer time as some of the standard complete metal even though there was some discussion about skateboards and other issues as far as maintenance this was a preferred area. So, you see trash enclosures here, planter box types, one of the things that people may or may not know is each planter box needs a drain and an irrigation Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting May 15, 2007 Page 6 of 10 system for that specific planter box and in here it calls out and you see the ability to put that within the sidewalk. Additionally we have our bike standards and that concludes my presentation on the specific engineering documents for the streetscape design standards. I will briefly go over two items, one of those being that the Meridian Development Corporation is currently looking at a demonstration project along Main Street there. We are doing a feasibility of doing an actual demonstration project on Main Street from Broadway to Idaho on the north. We additionally looking at combining a project within two budget years to see if we can get an additional city block somewhere along Idaho has been discussed that hasn't been an issue an issue that has been decided by the Board of Directors. In working with the Parks Department on the maintenance issue one of the things that Elroy has talked about within this specific tree grate replacement plan that is currently underway. Across the street at the library is a section that is currently scheduled for replacement and we are working together to see if we, the Meridian Development Corporation and the city can partner up to do an entire project within that block area. This presentation has, again, been before the Development Corporation. I am attempting to get on a schedule with the Ada County Highway District. They have been involved in a technical level. We are attempting to get their affirmation at the Commissioner level. Obviously it is coming before you. The other issue that the Meridian Development Corporation is in discussion with the city about and I have discussed it with the Mayor and I am currently discussing with the Parks Department is that without a local improvement district or another business improvement district in the downtown core to maintain these improvements, the Meridian Development Corporation is suggesting that the city, through its Parks Department maintain the improvements and that the Meridian Development Corporation make the capital improvements until such a time that a business improvement district may be formed to take care of the maintenance on those issues. That concludes my fairly brief presentation and I would be happy to answer any additional questions. Borton: Thank you, Mr. Wardle. Council any questions, comments? I think the request of his action is a decision or approval of Council obtaining approval of ACHD. I presume these then would be applied to our Planning Department as downtown development proceeds. Canning: President Borton, Members of the Council I was wondering how we would implement them. I think there are two different choices. We could incorporate them into the current design guidelines, which are adopted as part of our Comprehensive Plan; we can fold them into the design guidelines and standards that I am working toward preparing -trying to find someone to do that. We do have a scope of workout for those to try and get some help on that. So there are a couple different ways - if you wanted to implement them right away, we could it as a text addendum to the Comprehensive Plan design guidelines for old town. Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting May 15, 2007 Page 7 of 10 Borton: Anna would that replace those guidelines or supplement them? If there is a conflict between anything that is in there and this, can you - is it simply a statement that needs control? Canning: With my - I haven't reviewed these in detail. But it appears to me that these are all improvements within the public realm so these are overall within ACHD's right-of-way basically. So there was reference to the edge of the public, private realm in the design guidelines, but I don't think it details out what needs to happen in the public realm, so I think we could accommodate these pretty easily. Borton: By including them in the current design guidelines as an addendum? Canning: Yeah. Zaremba: Mr. President. Borton: Mr. Zaremba. Zaremba: As I recall, years back we were hoping that when these design guidelines showed up they would also be useable in the traditional neighborhood districts. Do you have a sense of whether that is going to work or not? Canning: President Borton, Councilman Zaremba, probably. We hired Sherry McKitland to work on those traditional neighborhood center guidelines. I wasn't thoroughly happy perhaps - it wasn't the product I was expecting, so I think we had anticipated that when we hired this person to do kind of city wide look at design standards that will fold those in, but I would think that these could still be workable, although we don't have the funding mechanism in the traditional neighborhood centers that we would in the old town area, Meridian Development Corporation's area. De Weerd: Are you mumbling? Canning: No, ma'am, I am not. Rountree: Just trying to get your attention. Canning: I will try to articulate more clearly, Council, I am sorry. Zaremba: I have a technical question to which I don't really need an answer right now, but somebody does need to look at it at some point. On the lighting, which I think is very attractive, the description of the top cover is that it would be cast aluminum, which would make it opaque. The drawing makes it appear that there are little windows in it, so my question is we need to be assured at some point that the final product does not allow up lighting -that whatever the lid is, we are not illuminating the sky since that is a requirement that we put on all street i ~ Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting May 15, 2007 Page 8 of 10 lighting. I just want to make sure that those are not windows and that the solid top is all cast aluminum. I don't need to know the answer right now unless you already know it. Wardle: Mr. President, Councilman Zaremba I believed that the picture description is of the cast aluminum portion and so - Zaremba: Solid - Wardle: Solid as to prevent the specific up lighting that you are talking about. Zaremba: Great, thank you. Rountree: Mr. President. Borton: Mr. Rountree. Rountree: I guess if ACHD has not acted on this I think it might be premature for us to start amending our development guidelines. I would hope that they would give us either a nod that is acceptable to them and their public right-of-way or any comments that they might want reconsidered or changed and at that point we then take action to adopt into our guidelines. We don't have to go back and do it twice and maybe preempt their decision-making process as well. Wardle: Mr. President, Councilman Rountree the Ada County Highway District has reviewed this document and made specific recommendations and as I mentioned they have had a number of pieces of input. I am attempting to get it to the Commission level to discuss that exact opportunity for them to essentially give their blessing to our zoning ordinance. There are a number of issues that I will -there are two specific issues, one which we expect to be resolved very shortly and one which would be resolved on a case by case basis. If you remember I believe it would be in the fall, legal counsel for the Ada County Highway District created a task force to address not improvements, but items in the right-of-way such as unauthorized bus benches, real estate pamphlets, signs and to my knowledge they haven't had resolution of those specific items and so that is something that could be an addendum to this article. Some of those things are considered within this document, some of them are not. The second piece to that, which I believe will be on a case by case basis is the licensing of the specific right-of-way improvement, i.e., sidewalks or additional asphalt for such things as outdoor cafes or some of the restaurants ability to seat their people in the right-of-way. I know that they are currently working through some issues in downtown Boise. We don't expect those specific issues, but we are waiting for some resolution on outdoor cafes or outdoor seating. Rountree: Thank you. Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting May 15, 2007 Page 9 of 10 Borton: Shaun, do you get asense - it would be helpful - I think Councilman Rountree's comments make a lot of sense as far as the timing of implementing something like this. Would it be helpful in your application and request to get this to and approved by ACHD a letter of support and I believe MDC was unanimous support, correct me if I am wrong and perhaps that this Council is of support, not necessarily adopting them today, but a joint letter from MDC and perhaps the Mayor urging their approval. Wardle: Mr. President, my purpose here tonight was not to gain specific approval from the Council. It is -the Meridian Development Corporation at their Wednesday meeting approved this after a number of months of discussion and so my purpose here is two fold. One to give a full presentation; secondly and maybe more importantly is to let you know that I am working with the Parks Department to come up with a budget item, which you will then be able to consider for your budget discussions specifically related to maintaining these improvements and so it was more important for me to get in front of you before that discussion at the budget hearing. I will take the proper steps to get that letter through ACHD and then come back for, I believe what Anna said would be a text amendment, if that sounds procedurally correct. Borton: Council if that is the option available is there any - or Madame Mayor you won't have any concerns going that route in voicing our support for that? De Weerd: Mr. Chair. Borton: Madame Mayor. De Weerd: I guess I think it is important since we would still be the regulatory agency that this Council would officially recommend adopting it and instruct staff to take the steps to incorporate it at the appropriate time after ACHD has signed off as well. Then I would also like -you know I appreciate you going to work with staff to look at budget for the upcoming budget year, but I would like to have a sunset on that of a time period that would be turned over to either or to whatever your establishing downtown to be that operational mechanism for any kind of maintenance and upkeep. So, I would like to hear a plan at whatever Council's direction would be, but open ended I don't feel comfortable with that (inaudible). Borton: Council any other comments, questions and I will proceed forward with joint letters of support and hopefully Shaun can push this through posthaste with ACHD and come back with a text amendment after that approval. Wardle: We will get it done. Thank you for your time this evening. Borton: Thanks Shaun. Council that brings us to the end of our Pre-Council meeting. I would entertain a motion to adjourn. • Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting May 15, 2007 Page 10 of 10 Rountree: So moved. Bird: Second. Borton: It has been moved and seconded to adjourn.

Aspects of site design include site improvements such as paving and materials choices; site furnishings such as benches and ar- chitectural elements; landscape elements and plant materials, and lighting. All elements of site design should contribute to the overall character of Downtown Meridian, conveying both its small town history and its transition to an urban city. Well designed streets and sidewalks add value and act as a catalyst to the development of private property. They provide the setting for land use. ;Sidewalk width, materials and site furnishings affect pedestrian activity and aesthetic quality and help determine how the adjacent businesses are developed and used. Public Process A series of meetings were held in the fall of 2006 with the design guidelines advisory committee which included representatives from Meridian Development Corporation (MDC), Meridian Parks and Recreation, Meridian Planning and Zoning, Chamber of Commerce, Meridian Public Works and Ada County Highway District. These meetings resulted in a Conceptual Streetscape Proto- type that was approved by the advisory committee. This prototype was put on display around the community for public comment. Upon receipt of public comment the prototype was brought before the MDC for adoption. The Streetscape Prototype was adopted by the MDC on DATE. Meridian Downtown Streetscape History 1928: E. First St. paved, designated by the State as part of State Highway 55. (Designation was changed with the opening of the Eagle Road interchange, when Highway 55 was moved to Eagle Rd.) 1979: Meridian Chamber of Commerce Downtown Development Committee established to work on improvements for E. First St. (now Main St.), including paving, landscaping and parking. 1982: A group of downtown businessmen and wornen propose an improvement association, due to concerns of the appearance of downtown Meridian. The effort failed, because some business owners did not think the problem was bad enough to warrant a monetary contribution from themselves. 1989: With the promise of a $5,000 matching grant from West One Bank, the City of Meridian and Meridian Chamber of Commerce each contributed $2500 for a Downtown Master Plan and Financing Plan. Community meetiings, interviews with citizens and public hearings were held throughout 1989. Some business owners still objected to the formation of an L.I.D. as part of the financing plan. June 1990: The Meridian City Council approved an L.I.D. to finance 22% of the improvement project. ~ ~ • Meridian Downtown Streetscape Design Guidelines November 1990: The City of Meridian successfully raised $905,000 and applied fora $400,000 Idaho Community Development Block Grant in November 1990, for improvements to E. First St. The Grant application included information on the hodge podge of cracked and patched sidewalks, lack of sidewalks in sorne areas, a mix of asphalt, concrete or no curbs, lack of drainage and no handicap ramps. The Grant application was denied. July 1991: Construction began on Phase I of the E. First St. project. Funding came from the Idaho Transportation Dept., ACHD, City of IVleridian, and the downtown L.I.D. Phase work was on E. First St. only, including corriplete street excavation, new drainage system, new water pipes, street widening to two lanes with a center turn lane, new sidewalks faced with 2 feet of brick up to the curb, curbs, gutters, new streetlights and Iandscaping.Total project cost $1.37 million.(When the ICDBG was turned down, the City went to ACHD &ITD, saying that the rrioving of Hwy. 55 to Eagle Rd. was leaving the City with a "mess" on E. First St. Both ITD and ACRD increase their participation in the project to $325,000.) November 11, 1991: Dedication of Phase I. March 1993: Phase II begins with plans to make similar improvements on Idaho Ave. between Meridian Rd and E. 2nd St., E. 2nd St. between Idaho and Broadway Avenues, and Broadway between E. First and E. 2nd Sts. Part of the funding was through an approved $400,000 ICDBG. Phase II improvements that were actually made included the Idaho Ave. project, the south side of Broadway between E. 1st and E. 2nd, and some work on E. 2nd. General Standards Overview The goal of this document is to designate the stree~tscape as 3 distinct zones. These zones are 1) Street Furnishings Zone, 2) Pedestrian Movement Zone and 3) Commerce Zone. The Street Furnishings Zone is located adjacent to the street and provides designated area for site furniture and amenities. This zone encourages pedestrians to remain on the street longer and ensures the furnishings do not interfere with pedestrian traffic. The Pedestrian Movement Zone is a minimum 5' wide concrete sidewalk providing convenient travel for pedestrians. The Commerce Zone is a minimum 5' wide paved area adjacent to the face of the building. This provides a space for busi- ness owners to provide services outside of the building walls. It may not be possible to provide all three zones on every downtown block. The Pedestrian Move- ment Zone and the Street Punishing Zone should be the priority over the Commerce Zone. Meridian Downtown Streetscape Design Guidelines The MDC worked to define the physical space for which the Streetscape Design Guidelines would apply. Due to its unique character as "Down Town Meridian" the area shown in the graphic on the facing page has been selected for implementation of the Streetscape Design Guidelines. Vicinity Map .. °•~ .,. ~. ~~ , ~. ,' f7 _. ":.w. _~;:,~ ~7 Meridian Downtown Streetscape Design Guidelines The MDC worked through the public process to develop a one block prototype. This prototype protrays the spatial intent of the design guide lines. Detailed information for each streetscape zone follows. • Typical Block ,y uorlenal3 neman~ip owis~x3 ~• _ _ Meridian Downtown streetscape Design Guidelines Description: The North /South streets of Meridian Road, Main Street and 1st East Street carry the majority of the vehicular traffic through down town Meridian. Due to the city block design of the down town area, the North /South streetscape is designed for a higher concentration of de- velopment such as ground floor retail, restaurants and entertainment uses and on street parallel parking. This streetscape is designed for a high volume of pedestrian use and is designed to buffer the pedestrian from the street as well as to encourage the pedestrian to linger within the streetscape while traveling to and from the businesses. The North /South streets are comprised of the three streetscape zones between the curb and the face of the building; 1) Street Furnishings Zone, 2) Pedestrian Movement Zone and 3) Commerce Zone. The intent of the guidelines is to provide each of these three zones when adequate space is available.

Due to the city block design of the down town area, the East /West streetscape is designed for a lower concentra- tion of development with a higher proportion of residential uses and on street parallel or angled parking. This streetscape is designed for a moderate or low volume of pedestrian use and is designed to provide a through path for pedestrians as well as opportunities for outdoor gather- ing and increased scales of Commerce Zones. The East /West streets are comprised of the three streetscape zones between the curb and the face of the building; 1) Street Furnishings Zone, 2) Pedestrian Movement Zone and 3) Com- merce Zone. The intent of the guidelines is to provide each of these three zones when ad- equate space is available.

The corner treatment maintains the bulb-out curb design existing on Main Street. The intersection corners are designed for a moderate to high volume of pecestrian use and are designed to provide a safe path for pedestrians to cross the street as welll as opportunities for outdoor gathering and increased scales of Commerce Zones. The intersection corners are comprised of the three streetscape zones between the curb and the face of the building; 1) Street Furnishings Zone, 2) Pedestrian Movement Zone and 3) Commerce Zone.

B&B These design guidelines identify the characteristic features of the historic commercial areas of Downtown Meridian and seek to ensure that as changes occur they will enhance that character. The guidelines are designed to serve to protect the existing features and promote compatible new growth and development into a cohesive vibrant downtown. By accomplishing these goals, property values increase, community identity is preserved and or enhanced and reestablished, and Meridian Downtown will become a destination for both locals and visitors. Guideline Maintenance Design guidelines are inherently a product of the period in which they are written and some guidelines might not be relevant to Meridian's needs at a future time. Additionally, guidelines are by nature experimental and must be tested through actual use. Initial implementation may indicate the need to abandon or amend some guidelines. Therefore, the development of an ef- fective maintenance system is essential to the continued health of the guidelines. An effective guideline maintenance system should be anchored in a systematic process for pe- riodic feedback, review & revision. An initial feedback process in which comments are solicited from city personnel and other private and public groups should, once the guidelines are imple- mented, generate a system for sustained periodic feedback efforts. A sustained system for pe- riodic feedback will generate the information required to evaluate the effectiveness of individual guidelines, the need to abandon or revise some guidelines, and the need for new guidelines. • Concrete Unit Pavers A endix B~ ~ Public Involvement Materials
