Our -- the name of our item has a very lofty sounding title. However, there has been a bit of confusion about it, but what we really want to do tonight is a~ quick follow up on the budget process while it's fresh in our mind to ask you if you have anything off the top of your head that you .would like to see improved or if you have any questions or any changes you would be interested in. And, then, also to let you`know last year we sent out a survey about the budget process. We will 6e doing that again and we are also going to include financial reporting in that survey, so we are trying to really find out` what information. do you need,. what information do you read, what information would you be interested in. So, please, all complete your survey and there will be door prizes at the end. Do you have any questions for Todd or I? K De Weerd: Council; any questions or comments, helpful suggestions, et cetera? Rountree: Not at the moment. i .,Bird: I have none. Hoaglun: My only. -- Zaremba: Madam Mayor? e De Weerd: Mr. Zaremba. Zaremba: I get to go`first, I guess. k J De Weerd: We'll let Councilman Hoaglun wrap it up as the liaison. V Zaremba: All right. Actually, it's not a question. I just -- I know we have said it, but I thought the process went very well this year and I appreciated all the support that we got from a,your department and.. the information and everything. I just wanted to say thank you.. ,, 4 .f j ~' 1' Meridian City Council- September 8, 2009 Page 5 of 34 ~ ~ ~, ': Kilchenmann`: Thank you. ~ ' De Weerd: Thank you. F Hoaglun: I just want to say appreciate you doing the survey. 1 know last year it was-. difficult forme to fill out; because -- Kilchenmann: Because you weren't here. Hoaglun: Yeah. First .time. And -- but we are going to ask for names on that. If you are going to do door prizes you have to put your name on it; right? „ Kilchenmann: Oh, we will do it by numbers, because it's anonymous., Hoaglun: Okay. That's~what I want toxcheck. Kilchenmann:,, But we don't want you to feel constrained. Hoaglun: I thought maybe you had changed that a bit: So, you know, we want honesty back here on everything. r: Bird: You'll know who it is by the recommendation. De Weerd: Remember, you're"public servants. Everything you say could be public, so put your names on it. Kilchenmann: It will -- it will be electronic, so -- Hoaglun: But it is a good thing to do and we hope-you get some good feedback for that. .. De Weerd: Well -- and, Council, I think,... too, Stacy and I have had conversations that -- of looking at the monthly financial statements and.working with the department directors and finding out what is helpful, how to revamp it and make it so the information adds value and so while you're .looking at providing feedback on the budget, if you would also look at your monthly statements and say what is helpful, what don't you look. at, that maybe staff doesn't need to do, just kind of look at it with a critical eye and we kind of talked about a few. things earlier and what we want the directors to do. So, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Okay.. Anything from you, Todd? Your grin is not as big this week. ~L~avoie: I'll work on that. De Weerd: Very good. Well, thank you, and it was -- we appreciate all the hard work. Certainly Stacy and her"staff-got a klot of kudos from the directors today as well. So, appreciate it. a i it i ~~ a 0 Meridian City Council September 8, 2009 Page 6 of 34 Kilchenmann: Thanks. B. Mayor's Office 1. Community Liaison Update De Weerd: Okay. Under the Mayor's Office -- Council, we -- when Councilman Rountree and staff and I got together last Friday to talk about this week's agenda, we thought we would move a number of the things that are generally on a workshop agenda up to this week, so you can take next week off. So, that's why you're .seeing some of these thingsr: on this week. So, under the Mayor's Office we have the community liaison update. Cavener: Thank you, Madam Mayor. Mr. President, MadamsMayor; Members of Council, again, my great opportunity to come before you and talk to you and give you an update as to what's been going on in the community since we last spoke. I don't know if moving me up a week was an effort to throw me off my-game, so I'd be a little more~brief -- we'll see how it goes. It's `funny;„the- last time I was before you I was sharing with you the accomplishments of -the Mayo`r's Youth Advisory Council had in the previous year and this afternoon we had our very first executive board' meeting and things are really ramping up for this year. I think it's going to be the most successful year in the Mayor's Youth Advisory' Council by sheer numbers of participation alone. There is a lot of excitement amongst our community to be involved in the Mayor's Youth Advisory Council, to participate in service projects and to really gain that leadership component that we look. to take on this year.' In addition to working with the Youth Council I have been out and about in the community the past two months. I know I have seen `a lot of you at the National Night Out event, ~at the Ten Mile interchange town .hall and at~ various ribbon cuttings and there has been a lot of ribbon cuttings in Meridian over the past two months, which I think is great for our community that we Have new businesses coming to town. Businesses opening up at multiple locations in our community and ..always enjoy having the opportunity to go to those and see what unique establishments that are coming in our community. The Ten Mile town hall event was attended by -- by about 44 people who live near -- near the interchange was, at Ten Mile Church and Councilman .Zaremba and I :were there and it was -- it was great to hear from people who both live in the City. of Meridian and in Ada County that are going to be affected by the Ten Mile interchange. What's. on their mind? This month I have a report that I will be handing over to you- that really focuses on communication. What are the people in. Meridian saying? So, I have taken some cross-comments>from our town hall meeting, from discussions that I Have had with people at National Night Out and I also provided some feedback that we received on our social network platform through Facebook where people have commented about different things that are going on in Meridian. A month- ago we had a really unique event that I think we we're really fortunate to be positioned with our social network strategy to take advantage of. A family had driven through the Starbucks`on Meridian Road and purchased their.coffee and, then, offered to pay for the coffee for the person behind them. Ten cars later I get a phone call from F b :~ .S Meridian City Council September 8, 2009 Page 7 of 34 someone in our community who wanted to share that story with us. ~ So, I was really excited about it, enthused with the idea of paying it forward, so I put it on our Facebook and our Twitter page. ~Well,~ about an hour and a half later I called back to Starbucks and, low and behold, it's still going on. They are on their 50th car. When it was all said ' and done 80 .vehicles participated in this, each vehicle paying for the one behind them. I think reallyspeaks to the spirit of giving and caring that's in our community and our citizens commented about that on our Facebook page, so I have shared some of their comments about why they love being in Meridian and being able to participate in that ' x event. Since we last spoke we had a town hall meeting on our budget and as well as a presentation by the small business development group. and while it wasn't the ` participation that 1 looked for, it provided a great learning experience for me to find different and `unique ways ;to advertise, market, and promote our town hall meetings. , . Our,. next town hall meeting will be: in October and it's going to focus on environmental strategies for the businesses, as well as for homes. That subject matter will also`go -- ; coincide-with an event that's being held fat Venga Works. 1-hope that by bringing people in that are already committed to being green and focusing on -.environmental sustainability ~I will have a~ built-in audience of people that are really looking. for the information 'that we are looking to share. And also people who may have never attended a town hall meeting that the City of Meridian has put on, to see what- it's about, , to see what we are doing, how we are being very proactive and getting outside the walls of City Hall tb interact with our citizens. I'm working with our economic excellence team in preparation for our next Meridian Business Day and I'm sure Josh and Phil will speak to you•a little bit on that, so I won't steal their thunder, since I'm going first. But Josh and I have also worked. together on the Meridian Business Professionals Connection, despite the difficult to pronounce name, it is a great organization made up of business people and business professionals in the community that are looking. to grow their business and to share knowledge learned from their missteps or success stories and we have had numbers that~have~'grown every month .at'our~free networking event and it's really gaining a lot of buzz amongst the business community as a great event that you have to attend. It's one of those must attend business events and I have been really happy to help be a part of that. The last time I spoke to -you we touched on some of the issues that have been going on .with the senior center. Most directly related- to their senior nutrition program. There had been ..some hiccups from the Elk's Rehabilitation i Hospital when it comes to food. I'm happy to report now that for the most part our seniors our very pleased when it comes to their senior nutrition program. Vl/hile maybe portions aren't to the ful4 extent of what they would like, the quality of food has improved ~ greatly. Pauline and Cindy of the.; Meridian Senior Center have done a great job of working with Sage to get the food quality levels up to what our seniors have expected. That also ties directly into -- and I don't want to reiterate information that-you have received, especially that pertains to Kleiner Park and the Meridian Senior Center, but our seniors are. just ecstatic over the, opportunity that -- that this senior center which was reallyan idea and a hope and a dream even six months ago is a reality and I know that they are• very eager to find ways to raise some funds to -- to bring the facilities up to par with what.. they are looking for and are just incredibly gracious over the gift from the Kleiner family and are really excited to move into that facility. The other group that I'm working with is the complete count committee. I have touched on them briefly. It's hard ,., Meridian City Council September 8, 2009 Page 8 of 34 ~: to believe that 2010,is right around the corner and our committee, which is made up of vast different members of our community, we are working to locate, identify individuals and groups that might. not be counted through traditional means and work. with our census to educate them on that. In addition, we are putting forth a lot of initiative that will begin in early 2010 that- will promote the census. So, for people who maybe they know about it, they don't have any problems with taking it, but maybe they are like me and -have lots of things going on and it puts it kind of in the front of their -- their view. So, I'm really excited to be working with our community on that and'that has been a unique opportunity, because it also brings me together with other people that serve in positions similar like merfrom Boise, from Nampa, and another Boise, valley community and hear what they are doing to get their citizens involved, not just with the census, but withiri the community as well. So, it's been a great organization. I have been really happy to participate with that. So, I think that's almost a record time, but I wanted to give, you the opportunity, if you had questions or follow up from -- from any of these points that I have brought up, either this month or in previous months and, then, like I said, I have got a packet here for you that kind of shares some of the comments from our -- from our community members. ' De Weerd: Council, any questions? Rountree: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Yes. Rountree: Luke, I think, the last time you were here we were talking about parking and. parks and activities and it seems that that's not necessarily gone away,' but I think folks -are of ease with what's going.on now. Is that your sense from being in the community as well? Cavener: It depends on the'-- on the date and depends on what's going on 'in our parks. We have one member of that neighborhood that has been very accommodating in providing me information, as to the parking situation as it pertains to their park. He's concerned about -- about football beginning and how that will impact. I met with him over the weekend we actually walked Settlers Park and his feeling is that if -- if the parking is going to be used mostly on the weekends on Saturday, that he doesn't foresee it being an issue. He still believes that the parking situation will never resolve itself with a residential only parking area, but he's been pleased and happy with. -- with the steps the city has taken ~-- while they are not his favorite, he at least recognizes that we have went above and beyond to accommodate him in the neighborhood. When spoke to you last month we -- or' two months ago, we had brought up that many members of the. city staff -had addressed .their HOA and presented a multiple amount of ideas. None of them were' accepted. Ideas that even the neighborhood brought up weren't accepted by their own neighborhood. Their HOA board has contacted us and said that they wanted to 'move forward:: with. the ideas that the city had presented and, then, when members of the HOA found out about that, they quickly changed their mind . ~ .:! +F _ 1, a 7 Meridian City Council' ° September 8, 2009 Page 9 of 34 0 , t and are fine being, essentially, in a .holding pattern and aren't really. willing to make a decision one way or another as to what they would' like to see. , Rountree: Thank you. De Weerd: Any other questions? One thing that Luke didn't mention is he's been hanging out with the high schoolers during registration and you might give numbers of those that have signed up as interested... r Cavener: Mr. President, Madam- Mayor; Members of Council, Madam Mayor, you are correcf that I -- it was only fitting that if I went back to college this summer that I'd go back to high school this fall. I realized very quickly that I -- I'm old enough now that I am kind of the enemy, so day one, showing up in a suit and tie„ I was largely ignored. It, wasn't until a .polo shirt and khaki shorts and a bigger. smile that we started talking to a lot of our area students. We received a little over ahundred -- 180 interested students ~' from Meridian that are looking to either participate either on the Mayor's Youth Advisory Council, to serve as a youth member on a commission;. or just looking for information ., about how the youth can volunteer. If there is one fact that's been eye opening since I started this position in working with our youth, is how many events they have going on. I didn't think that I was so far removed from that, butbetween multiple sports, music lessons, groups and activities, they have lots going on and I was ...really excited to see there is some students that flat out told me I'd like to serve on the Mayor's Youth Advisory Council. I don't have the time, but if there is a volunteer opportunity that's on a ' weekend that I'm available; I would love to participate. So, please, continue to let me ;, know that. So, we have built a database of interested students that are looking to volunteer and it will -- it will work well when we are promoting events that speak to that ,, demograph, that we will be able to make them aware of -- of not just volunteer opportunities, but as youth; council looks to expand the- teen activities council, it will- make them aware of events that they are going to have to participate in. So, .it's been -fun and it's been a very unique experience. t De Weerd: And we had discussions with the executive -- with the officers today who are a little bit intimidated by the. numbers and I think both Luke and I can say so are we. When they show up with their parents and the youth, it will be an interesting full room think in this -- in this room, which I hope we were able to reserve. City Clerk?' Holman: Oh, I'm sorry. Could you, please, repeat that, Madam Mayor? De Weerd: No. I'll bug you later. Holman: Okay. De Weerd: But I think it's -- it's very positive. The kids have really revamped a number of things that they want to see happen to balance the community service, the " ` citizenship, and leadershipropportunities. So, it will be an exciting year. Thank you, , Luke. ~ n fi Meridian City Council ~.. September 8, 2009 ° Page 10 of 34 i 2. Economic Development Update De Weerd: Okay. Economic development update. Stiffler: Good evening,. Madam Mayor, President of the Council, and fellow Councilmen. Very pleased to be here again as usual. I don't know, Luke -- oh, he went out of the room, so I can't say some of the things I wanted to say. Josh told me I was the one that was going to be -- give the brevity -side tonight, so after Luke Ican -- I can come forward. Before I -- before I go through the PowerPoint, there is one centralized comment that I'd like .to make as an update and I think it's very important for all the `Council to beware of this. It's been- very' interesting as we look at kind of the national economic times and the trouble that we still see in our economic. future or'the hurdles that we think still need to be -- I guess we have to be able° to get past some of those hurdles. The one thing that I'm pleased to report and I think the Mayor will agree with me here -- is that on a lot of the site visits and business people that we engage with and work with, they are not saying that bad times are over, but I would say it's very nice to think about the engagement that we talk to people of a~different kind of optimism, a different kind of let's move:forward and what can we do about the times that we were in. I know Councilman Hoaglun was also present. I used an example of even the Coffee with' the Mayor session that we had out at Girio's restaurant, it was very interesting.. We had a: very°excellent turnout. In talking to the people that showed up there and the businesses and little businesses were there, we weren't hearing all the standard negativity -- what , I might say standard negativity, but that negativity that was there going on for that cycle, and I~ think that's- very important to kind of share with you, because in a way we are getting it shared with us by the business people. Many of the recent site visits the Mayor and I have been on, it's interesting, it's kind of -- they would say, yeah, things aren't, you know, -the way they used to be, but we need to take action to do something about it. So, that's kind- of my -- that's kind of my big overview of just the notes that 1 want you to pay -- to feel good about- and I think they feel good about that, because also it's representative of the attitude of the Council, it's representative of the attitudes of the community and it's the kind of, yes, I can, yes; I can, yes, I can make it happen and I-know th'at.Luke mentioned it's no different than I'll talk in a few minutes a little bit again about the Meridian ~ Business Day or other events and we think how important it is to keep attitudes positive, so that people do spend- money with our businesses and they do work around each other. So, with that, kind of going forward, as similar to what you have seen on the other updates and reports that we have given and segmented into the category ,of first on the business enterprise corridor. As all of you I believe are aware and. some of -- most of you -- or a couple of you are -- I think most of the Council was present at the original -- at the actual launch of the core back in June. Following that we` have the marketing summit, which.we had approximately 45 different business representatives within the core that showed up at that. It was held at St. Luke's Hospital. I know President Rountree was also present at that meeting:' What that has created is it's ''created more what I would consider to be a stakeholder ownership in looking at how aprivate-public partnership in the core can be something that's key to the job growth and the quality job growth and providing an industry and a true business enterprise 'corridor cluster that we had talked about. What's happened is h, :~: Meridian City Council September 8, 2009 Page 11 of 34 5 a 1 that since thafi time we, are now working with 1SU -and the key stakeholders to look at what's the appropriate entity to be ..ongoing at core representative of that stakeholder group and those discussions actually are continuing on to tomorrow -- as of tomorrow morning I have another meeting with the group, but to look at that entity that makes sense and that may be a 501(c)(3}, a 502(c)(6), it may be that entity to allow that ongoing marketing approach to the core to the benefit of all the stakeholders: We have already out of that original,.launch program we actually have entities that are major developments in that project-, such as Portico and others, that have asked the right to' be ablerto say we are part of the core, we are part of that kind of an entity. We have engaged and what's happened is we have entities such as PKG, who are saying, hey, look, we are kind- of on the fringe of that geographic `area you have identified, Phil, but we want to be part of that whole core and what can we do as an operation. They have actually invited the major -- some of the major businesses in the core to a planning event actually at a Boise State football =- upcoming Boise State football game up in the -- they have a box. up~'there and they have brought all the people together and their invitations went out for the _purpose of gearing that whole business motivation about. what the core can mean. I would also mention one other positive thing. The comments as you go by and you look at Portico and-you look at the high rise building still going up, it's. very interesting, because it gives a positive attitude to what's going on over there and the people look at it that way, although we haven't really got the press yet to jump on that as much as they were worried about it when it wasn't going up, but we wish we could. And, then, finally,., we just had a -- we had a joint meeting reference the actual white paper presentation to look at .long term planning for :.field district and fields innovation districf. After our meeting where we had representatives of some of the stakeholders, as well as `particularly University of Idaho and other people that contributed to that, we should be in a position probably by our next update or sooner as a special meeting to present that white paper to the Council for consideration and looking at it with regard to action items going forward. And I will ask if there is any questions on that section .before I go forward, I would be glad to answer them. Rountree: Madam Mayor? ! ~ ' De Weerd: Mr. Rountree. Rountree: Phil, when you talk about the session on the fields district and the stakeholders"present, were there any of the major landowners involved in that? Stiffler: Not on that session. However, we have had discussions with them and our goal was to present the white paper to them. That was the goal to get-that prepared, so they -- they had asked us,~ as you may be aware, we had representation from -- I believe four to five of some of the major people out in that area in the original session and they had asked that they would -- we ask more definitive about more of an action plan and what could that mean down-the road. ~: Rountree: Thank you. , ~. , a . ~ ;i . r ~' ~ .. 4 M1 ~:: ~ ~ Meridian City Council ~" September 8, 2009 ~ , Page 12 of 34 Stiffler: The riext is the section, as you're well aware of, having- to do with -that ongoing engagement with existing- and emerging Meridian businesses. These are just -- what we have done, is we have identified just aYfew of the examples and I guess part of the examples to indicate that is that it.was interesting -- the Mayor and I were over at Idaho Fence Supply. I don't even know `if any of the Councilmen are aware of Idaho Fence Supply: Actually, I wasn't either. But low and behold, one of our other developers, another individual in the community, said, Phil, you need to go -- you need to go .meet with Idaho Fence Supply. These guys are the entrepreneurial kind of free spirit that, guess what, they started ~a business -- they were working for a company in Boise,. which, actually, ran into financial troubles and they lost their job. What-they did entrepreneurially said, look, we are going to start up our.own business and we are going to start it up in Meridian and it's kind of one of those stories you'd like to get out there. And so I: think they were.,a little bit shocked that we actually had the -- had the opportunity to go -- that we would take that initiative to go see them and now they are looking at -- they are actually looking -- I can't.-speak out of this. They are looking at another larger space in Meridian, because of-the success and the growth of what they are actually doing. But I think that was another indication I would say that even you look at these. in a way that are all connected to construction or contract and,you~think of that, you go, wait a minute, Phil, how can they be optimistic. Well, what they'are finding is their different niche'. I'll just use the fence supply business. -They are looking at in some cases people may not be buying a new home, but they are looking at the people that are also looking at improving their existing home or they are looking at those targeted areas that makes sense. The same with" Marv's Insulation, a good example. So, I kind of separated a little bit some of the site visits directly with the Mayor with also some of the other things--that we see happening. I'm going to pick out in the next group --1'm going to pick out Syringa Networks. Those of you who may be aware of Syringa, when we think of all the major broad band -- broad -band technology from the standpoint. of where is that -- where is it being ran that actually has an idea of looking at being able to serve the growth and'the technology for the future of the city. One of the things they are very excited about and got very engaged in is primarily within the core and that ..capability that actually we helped arrange, they have had meetings with the developers there, they already know what they.can serve related to St. Luke's Hospital and others and they are a major player in the context of wanting to say we want to be a player in that to make sure that we have the capability to have that technology support for any growth that would happen iri the core. Obviously, the third piece there is that we -- we still continue to -- to what I would say communicate in appropriate =- we don't try to do the chambers job and they don't try to do our job, we need to make;. sure that we are coordinating with them where it's appropriate. The two -- the two next ones -- I think Luke did steal a little bit of the thunder for Josh and I. Josh.is smiling. But that's okay, because it's been a very cooperative effort and the Meridian Business and Professional Business Group, I won't go into anymore than Luke just mentioned. It is exciting. It's a positive thing for Meridian; it's a positive thing for our community and the business people. The last one there on planning for the next Meridian Business Day,. I will say to you we have had people ask us when is the next Meridian Business Day. When is the next Meridian Business Day? And you say -- it's a little bit like some of you have -- I know that all the Council; I believe, fiad a chance' to go over and visit at Venga Works, if Meridian City Council ` September 8, 2009 Page 13 of 34 , I'm correct. I don't know -- I know that, Councilman Hoaglun, you have been at the smoke out. I don't know how many of the Councilmen have had a chance to be there. But the exciting part is kind of that non-formalized kind of networking to the point that we saw it in Meridian Business Day, we are seeing it out -- what's happening in the smoke out, where business people are connecting with other business people and saying, you know, I didn't know that'-- I didn't know that you did this. I'd like to do business with you. And that may sound smaN; but it's not small, because it's, again, part of that whole overview of that positive side and people seeing that opportunity and' it's great when they get together and if you still remember that day here, we had close to~400 people- ~, and I would say that based'on -- with all the engagement and look at it, is the catalyst behind it a lot of the people that have stayed -- that have stayed the course on helping. to get that set up to begin with, are` staying the course on all the activities as a catalyst and, as I say, the°Mayor is saying where ever we can get those people to help, or engage what we are doing, they are doing that and they know that part of their success is our success: Any questions on any of that? Rountree: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Yes, Mr. Rountree. Rountree: Phil, you mentioned the smoke out. t Stiffler: Yes. Rountree: And all of these things are couched in terms of Meridian, which is , appropriate. But the last smoke out lattended -- not the last one that was held -- a ...good share of the people I met were from Boise based companies who had •heard about it and they were there to°do the same thing that the Meridian folks are there -- ;; Stiffler: Yes. i Rountree: -- and I'm not so sure that maybe it isn't about time -- and I'm not -- I know you're not connected with the smoke out, but in terms of the Meridian 'Business and ; Professional Services, is it -- we get those feelers out there more from Meridian Business Day and maybe make it Meridian's -- the hub of Treasure Valley, come- one, ~ come all kind of a business day, instead of just focusing primarily on Meridian, because . we are all playing in this game together. De Weerd: You know, I agree with you, Councilman Rountree, and so have the organizers and, you ",know, I do think they are a representative of the Treasure Valley and they are trying to bring it back to their'communities and doing like projects. I know Ghat certainly Brandon has been asked to -- to go to different communities and see what they can gain from what the smoke out has kind of initiated and some of the energy and " business to business relationship building that they have nurtured over there. So, it certainly has been an area of discussion. Meridian City Council September 8, 2009 Page 14 of 34 ` Stiffler: I would only add the one comment. that I would reiterate I think the success as we continue -- it is the idea of Meridian within the Treasure Valley and within the Boise valley and how that relates and we are all. related to that success and I think that what's happened out of the Meridian Business Day -- Meridian Business, Day, as it's promoted, did not mean to exclude so it's only Meridian businesses. We need to use that as thafi invitation. In fact, we have heard some comments that some of the other cities want to duplicate a very similar event. Well, the idea let the event still be one, but patience wise if we support that to the` ultimate success of the economic excellence side of the whole Treasure Valley. On an ongoing positioning for sustainable economic base, I will say the one -- the one comment that I mentioned to the Council before is that the one area that we have continued to see that has not changed a whole lot yet is the financial side of the financing for those business enterprises. And I would say that even in a recent discussion that -- at the Mayor's Advisory Council abouf a week, ago I got talking to some~of the people from Venga Works and a few of the other businesses prior to the meeting and it was the same thing. So, I'd say that we still are trying to see where ever we could be a conduit or a catalyst or anything reference that financial side of the business enterprise, because for the same reasons.we see I talk about a start up or a new business or that thing that springs out of something else. The SBA and other things have some sources that be there, b'ut that is still one of the kiig challenges. And so I guess we still try to think where ever we can draw upon or open to any tools or anything that could be there to look at that -- that financial side of the potential for a lot of that~small to medium size business growth. It's still a challenge. Hoaglun:R Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Yes. Hoaglun: Question for Phil on that. You know, nationally they are talking -- I read an article again .today on the commercial and refinancing and the difficulty that's being had out there by these folks. If you can speak to Meridian, what's your assessment,of -- I'm sure there is difficulty, but is it a little brighter spot, is it worse off than the national picture? Where-would you place us or are we just like everybody else? Stiffler: I would guess that Iwould -- I guess'my personal opinion would be is that in some ways we are a little worse off, because we are not a big enough market for attention in some ways to some of the financial side and we talk about some of the venture capital.. money, we still are struggling to be recognized in some ways, so as it starts to come back I go back to. my banking background, is when it starts to come back in some ways I'd like to say: But, wait a minute, where is your risk? Is your risk better looking at here versus where it is over here in this larger community? But I think it would depend, again, on the type of business side. I think to the extent that we think about residential -= I mean whether construction or commercial, Phoenix, San Diego, and some of those` areas, we are far ahead of them, you know, in some of those -- some,of those areas, because the risk side and looking at the assessment is going to put us at a higher level. I think sometimes still within the venture capital, that kind of emerging kind of business, the ones that are kind of -- they are going to help make our Meridian City Council ' September 8,•2009 Page 15 of 34 future, I wish we had more sources: That's what' I keep hearing. You know, we don't have the same sources that you would even- find' in a Seattle or a Portland and they attracted that kind of investment dollars. So, I~think part our overall ongoing, as a valley and as a state, of recognition who we really are, that's still going to be a challenge, but I ' view it's an opportunity, because if we can get our story out there and they really start to assess it, I think we have very viable business enterprises, ones that are popping up out of -- even out of Venga Works, things that we have seen there that are still trying to find that,privatized investment capital. Just going down this, I kind of -- I just listed off a few of some of the other ongoing kind of dialogues or discussions -- these. have come out of the core,~they have. come out of other developments -- you're familiar with a lot of it, some. of the names here. We could probably list every one of the developers, because it's kind of-like when the call comes in or when they are talking about individual things. The one other one that I want to bring up -- and I welcome the Mayor's comment, too. The Mayor's Professional Workforce Development Advisory Council -- I don't know, I got to check myself on show long it's been in .existence now. I think it's going on six months? I'm trying to go back- to the meetings. The group that we have there-- and l would say this -- and I think it's important and complimentary for` the Council. to , understand, that group of individuals has been one of the most passionate, progressive, positive influential kind of groups that I have been involved in since l have been involved in working with the city in the economic excellence -arena and I think the Mayor in the most recent meeting we just had last week -- these people came up with -- I tell you what,. if your heart wasn't going before you went into the meeting -- and this is what I'm kind of .talking -- your heart was beating fast when you went out of the meeting, because they were saying what can we make Meridian be? What can we make -- how can we make. it different? And the; concept of this, as you remember, President Rountree that-. we handed out a survey at the core marketing summit. And it was interesting, one central theme that all the business people there said, okay, how can we make our business enterprise corridor or our health district, how can we make it different? What can make ours different? And the Mayor's Advisory Council, we got all all kinds -- it all started focusing in. We rotate that advisory council so that it's at a different business for each, meeting to any- of `the people that are present. This last one was at bodybuilding.com., So, at each one~of those sessions they helped to inform the other business people about what they are doing, where they are going, what's happening. Well, that'-goes all into the health and welfare and the fitness of everything to do with the workforce. Is.it a place where business would like to~be, because this is a community that cares about those kind's of values. That cares about,the worker. That cares about the health and welfare of the workers, their families, et cetera. Well, by the time they got done we actually at some point in time -- the Mayor's pushing me along. I'd like to -- I'd like to show you a copy of a -- of a video that was done on an °animal -- animal corridor back in Kansas City, which we will bring to the` Council at~some point in time, that' MWI brought to us, orie of our companies, of what's actually going on back there. But, anyway, my summary would. be this: You have an advisory council that is very pro- ' active in wanting,to give input and insight into the success of economic excellence for r the city. With that I'll skip down to the good news stories, because I do want to bring a couple of those up. All of you're aware of good news stories and the idea that looking at -- looking at, for example, that Intermountain Gas putting their corporate headquarters, .: , ~ ~;T - a y ~«. s Meridian City Council m September 8, 2009 Page 16 of 34 ' ~ ~ ' y ;: as'"you know, over in EI Dorado. If you look at the same token, if you look at -- if you notice the IBR just recently advanced precision~on the gun making firm that could be an `, additional 30 jobs that are going here. Thirdly, there was some rumors going along , about the Black Hawk manufacturing was going to be moving their distribution center ,. and~out of here and they were going to Montana. It's not happening. They are staying here. So, anyway, with that -- 'I will skip on. Unless questions. Last one on targeting marketing to attract new kvalue added business. Just quickly I will say this, you have heard me make some comments appropriately sometimes when we see some of the opportunities that come;through our-joint efforts in working with BVEP. Again, these are ..code names. One of them we just happen to"mention is project Apple, which -- all I can say about this is it's one that we are kind of excited about. This does not require an immediate existing building for them to move in. Sometimes you run into problems with some of these as they come in. This is`one that can be a build- -- built to suit, which, means we have 'some opportunities in this -- this response. But I will say -- and this maybe an interest in kind of what's going nationally, the recent projects that have been ~. coming through BVEP in the `last really 60 days --'from Phil's opinion, Josh's opinion, and stuff, are conceivably more viable, real opportunities in a way that tells me something about the economy,. too, and where people are looking at going. As the i Council is aware also one of the things that we are looking at, obviously, with- regard to -- regard to other potential investment or communities is that evaluation related to our trip coming up to China with regard to the potential for that Chinese investment and that , will be something we can report on later. Last item there, which, in honesty and brevity of what's saying there, the. Semi Con West Trade Show was not one- that I would say that I can'°come back and'°say. I saw value in. Unfortunately, the nature of what was ' anticipated: to be at that show was not as anticipated.. I would say it's not a show that I would recommend that the BVEP or ourselves participate in. With that I will be quiet. ' 1 De Weerd: Council? Wow, you promise? P Stiffer: Promise. De Weerd: Council, questions? Rountree: I have no -- a ., Bird: I have none. v Stiffler: Thank you. { t C. Clerk's Office 1. Discussion on Council Recommendations for new rAgenda Manager Submission Process . p De Weerd: Thank you, Phil. Okay. Item 7-C is our Clerk's Office, discussion regarding our new Agenda Manager submittal process. y, i. a ® ~. ` h+ .. :r ~' ,. Meridian City Council September 8, 2009 Page 17 of 34 Holman: Thank you, Madam Mayor., President Rountree, Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, this subject is actually -- was suggested by the Mayor at one of our meetings when I was discussing the upgrade to the Agenda Manager processes. Right now, we have been doing all of the packet preparation, kind of it in dual mode and a testing mode, where we scan everything din the way we always have and, then, we have also been creating a pdf packet, which is, actually, how Agenda Manager will publish it, It will all be one document with market chapters for the different -items on the agenda. One of the suggestions- that the Mayor had was to solicit your input about how you would like the land use items scanned into Agenda Manager. Sometimes some of the items, the way we have scanned them in- ih the° past, end up being 50 to 100 page documents and when you're at a meeting trying to get to a certain section of an application or elevations or, staff reports or whatever item you are. specifically looking for, you may not have the time to do that while they are presenting that portion of whatever project it is. So, what I'm seeking from all of you is just some direction as to what items you specifically go to or look at or how you would like to see this stuff scanned in and, essentially, tabbed and separated within Agenda Manager. I also am asking for the October 6th meeting, if it's possible, for you all to come a little bit .early, maybe 15 or 20 minutes, so I can walk through with you how to navigate your way through the new pdf packet~-and to access it. It's fairly simple, but either I -- I guess two choices, I-could have you come early or set up a time within my office where we could go over it one'on one if you,had more specific questions. It's really -- I'd just like to do it however it would work best for all of you and the Mayor.,. De Weerd: That's all right. I already gave my two cents worth. So, Council, I .guess what we are asking is how to better categorize your packet of information, so you're not flipping. through 90 pages and trying to remember where you saw the -- the neighbor letter or the list of who got the notice within 300 feet -- you know, the ACRD report or the school district comments or what have you. If you can look at that systematically how to categorize or what. is worth having its own category for that makes it meaningful for you. So, it's easier to tab and to search on. So, that's -- that's the kind of feedback we are hoping to get from you. Canning: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Yes, Anna Canning: If the Mayor and Council would like, we can break up the staff report as well. knowthat those have a lot of .factual information in them for -- so, that we have a good record, but we can structure that staff report however Mayor and Council would like as well De Weerd: You know, because I do know we had a discussion on this sometime ago -- along time ago and just didn't have the capacity to do it, but, you know, we have legal issues -- or legal things that need to be in the official fife, doesn't necessarily need to be in the umpteen pages that you have, like the legal descriptions or -- I don't know what all .[ ~ ~. Meridian City Council September 8, 2009 Page 18 of 34 they are, but those can b'e tabbed into, you know, another category that is not as pertinent. So, just, again, what are those things that really drive you to that -- that help you be better'- informed as to where to find elevations, your plat, you know, even separating out the conditional use issues with the annexation. Zaremba: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr.,Zaremba. y y a Zaremba: I don't know if this is what you're looking for or maybe it's out .of the realm of what we are planning, but I'm assuming you're talking about scanning in hard copy pages, which is what we normally get, and I have been able to navigate through them and find things that I need fairly well, but it could- be easier if they were supplied to you in electronic form and, then, we could have some kind of a search engine with them that would allow us to do a key word search. I realize that gets into technology and other stuff, but if you're scanning in a hard copy, that's not a possibility, but if you were scanning -- if you were receiving them electronically a`nd putting them in, then, it would be possible to have a key word search or something .like that. . Holman: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, a lot of the documents -- and Councilman Zaremba. A lot of the documents that we do receive now are submitted electronically through Agenda Manager. So, we are -- I do have to print a paper copy of 4 them regardless, because I have to, have a physical minute book .now. But the things that I -- there are some things I do end up scanning. in hard copies and those are things that have original signatures. I will scan them in so that Council can see beforehand that other entities have signed them, our staff has signed off on them all and that all that's remaining is for the Mayor to sign and for me to attest after approval. But for the most part they are .scanned electrically and I believe if you have ever done a search ~ within Adobe Acrobat you can search by certain words. and you should be able to 'search this file within Acrobat to find specifically what,you're looking for. We were just thinking .more along the lines of a quick reference -- we have always done it this way ' and I'm not a big fan of we do it this way because we have always done it this way. Now that we have a new system, if we can organize it more efficiently, create a new system, okay, these are the five items that we want, instead of -- like we have been ,_ .going application, comments, minutes, notices, P&Z items, and packet, recommendation -- are there some of those sections that could be combined, because you don't really look at some of that in detail at a meeting and other items that we could expand out that would be easier for you to search, so -- and if it's easier for all of you to send this to me in an a-mail format to collect your thoughts and do it that way, that's acceptable forme also, so you don't have to think about it on the fly, so -- Rountree: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Rountree. a Meridian City Council September 8, 2009 " Page 19 of 34 }, , Rountree: I'm just going to shoot you some stuff here. An aerial. photo to have. Surrounding zoning map. Site map and elevation could be -- site`„plan and elevations could be combined under, one tab or orie category. Public comments. Agency comments. Plat, if we are dealing with the preliminary or final plat. Public noticing and any draft recommended- language for DAs or such that might be included in a motion for. approval or denial. Staff always 'provides us with the -= with,a write-up anyway in terms of where we are with respect to Planning and Zoning, what the remaining issues are, and that sort of thing and I kind of like to have that as a hard copy still as a reference. But those. are things off the top of my head that I would refer to back and forth as we deliberate a project and anything more than'that it starts getting confusing and -- to me and, then, I would rely on staff for the specificity that might be in an application. I don't really need to see the application personally. Bird: Madam Mayor? De' Weerd: Mr. Bird. Bird: I agree with Councilman Rountree, because I doubt if -- on the application -- out of those 96 pages if we read ten, 15 pages, you know, we skim through and get the main points and Ithink -- I think right there to make the decision -- and if it's toocomplicated we can always come back to the hard copy and find out, so I'd like to keep it as~simple as we can, but yet have enough information that we can make judgment on.and I think what he just pointed ouf takes care of thatJin my mind. . 'Hoaglun: Madam Mayor, just to quick thought. What occurred to me was the fact I like when Planning and Zoning does their report, I like to go to that, .because, then, I can find out out of the 20 issues there are only two things that are of concern and I want to know what -- what those issues are. And maybe if there is a way -- I don't know if this: ' software allows that, if there is a way you can hyper link what the issues are to the place in the application or the` pertinent documents, so you can just jump there °quickly and easily to .find out what -- because everything .else is taken care of, it's done, we don't have to worry about it, but on those issues, okay, what's the information, who is recommending what, why is that an issue, and different things like that. So, don't know if it's possible,;. but something to look at, keep in mind. Holman: Madam Mayor, Members' of the Council, Councilman Hoaglun, Twill look into that. I'm learning more and more about Agenda Manager every day, so -- Canning:Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, I assume the section you're talking about is the analysis section and we could -- we could move that to the front. The -- we have been reluctant to do that in the past, because sometimes it -- before you present all the. facts it makes it seem like you're jumping to a conclusion .by just having the analysis. But 1 think it .would certainly serve. as a more useful document in a lot of ways to have the analysis at the lbeginning of the document. So, we~can try it that way for `awhile, if Mayor and Council would like to see that. x ~ , s i Meridian City Council September 8, 2009 , Page 20 of 34 De Weerd: I think, again, the ease of tabs 'and -- yeah, there should- be a whole lot of them, but if they are logical -- I would also advise to have this discussion with the Planning and Zoning Commission and seek their feedback, because what we do here '+ will also help with the ease of the public finding information as well, as part of the public record. So, I guess if it~-makes sense to all~of us, we may want to float it by a couple of u others and -- and, again, we are just trying to have better ease of getting information, as someone's .testifying you think of something, oh, I remember seeing something, it's nice to not have to -- to start paging down to find where that might have been and, I know, some people who are ;technically inclined know about search engines, you know, I'm' going page down, so -- Holman: So, Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, would you prefer to come a little bit early to a meeting and do it that way or have me train you individually? Bird:" Come early.. Zaremba: I move to come in early -- ~ ' Rountree: Early. Zaremba: -- for a regular meeting. Holman: Okay. So; do we want to -- and I will send a reminder also. Would the October 6th meeting work -- Rountree: Sure. Holman: -- for that, because, then,. I believe the Mayor will be here and we should have '' ---will everybody be at that meeting that you're aware of? ~ 3 Zaremba: f know I expect to be. Rountree: I am. ` ~ F ' Holman: As it gets closer I will send out a reminder, then. Rountree: Yeah. It looks like it would work. r Holman: Thank you. 2. Discussion on Request for Reconsideration Hearing for° Temporary Classroom at Paramount Elementary School De ..Weerd: Thank you, Council. Item 7-C-2. Anna; did you want to present this? I know it's listed under the clerk's office, but -- „~ Meridian City Council ~ ~~ September 8, 2.009 "' Page 21 of 34 ,. Canning: -Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, we have a request... for reconsideration for the Paramount temporary trailers. It's been filed under Councilman _ Rountree's name: It did come indirectly through a -- one of the neighbors that is -- his ' backyard faces the Paramount school site, so there is a request for reconsideration before you. , De Weerd: Okay. I think, Council,.. you did get the letter. We have had about a half dozen a-mails from other residents who also would like this reconsideration heard. Mr. Nary, did you `have something to add? Nary: Excuse 'me, Madam`Mayor, Members of the Council. The other issue that was raised was_ a notice -- because this was a certificate of zoning compliance, the' code doesn't require actual notice be mailed. But, then, of course, the neighbors,-then, only happened to know of this -- there was some posting on the site, but other than that once it was- moved there and school started is when the building was seen by the neighbors. So, the notice was an issue and a concern that was raised by theapplicant as well, so those are, Iguess, two issues, one was the notice and secondarily was they were seeking a rehearing, because they wanted to discuss the color of this building in relation to their neighborhood. , Zaremkia: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Zaremba. 5 Zaremba: You. mentioned that we all have received a number of e-mails. I would clarify that ~~at least 'one of them was actually from.. the president of the homeowners association. So, it was neighbors that are concerned, but also he was saying the entire association would like to speak to us as well. ,De Weerd: Okay. Rountree: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Rountree. ~~ Rountree: The- question ---the question I had when I received the request was -- in the first request was ,the colors don't work with'"the community and my thought .is, well, we don't enforce CC&Rs, but I~don't know what the applicant -- and the school district did with respect to finding ,out if they are part of the homeowners association and I don't know that we know #hat,.yet, do we, Anna? Canning: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, I didpcontact Brighton Corporation as the largest member of the homeowners association and they said that they did not have any means of influence over this decision. I think that means they are not part of the HOA, but I wasn't sure exactly. J Meridian City Council September 8, 2009 ~ Page 22 of 34 Rountree: Yeah. That's an interesting way out. Anyway, that's a thought that came to ,° me when I heard the ~ issue and {-the reason Awhy I said go ahead and put on for reconsideration. Our action tonight is simply will we reconsider our decision about placing the portable -- temporary portable on site as is or do we want to rehear it -- hear the public testimony and reconsider our decision of last week. So, that's the action we '~ need to take: Do we or'do we not reconsider. F '* Hoaglun: Madam Mayor, I have a question for legal counsel. Bill, on this if we take action for reconsideration, those portables are there, they are in use, school has started, that does not affect anything in the time being, does it? Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, Councilmember Hoaglun, no, they can still operate those, dependent if you grant this, depending on the outcome, of the hearing, that can impact on whether or not they can continue. But right now it wouldn't affect them at all. Zaremba: Mr. President -- or` Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Yes, Mr. Zaremba. P Zaremba: I know we considered- this before, but there may be some additional things we could learn. As I look around- at some of the other schools that have temporary buildings already. Many of hem might be visible from the closest neighbor, but they-are not visible from any street and.1 don't remember whether this one, in particular, is visible beyond one or two homes.. And I think the only way we would learn that -- and it may make adifference -- would be if we actually did grant" the reconsideration. And I don't + , think we'd reconsider whether they can have the building or not, what we had as our discussioh is.whether they needed to comply with current requirements of, you know, modulation of the front andstuff, but I don't thinkwe did talk about color. De Weerd: Yeah. Council, I guess they -- the school district in the application packet did -- did detail a lot of that. The portables -- and there are a number of them at f Mountain View High School. There certainly were at`~Meridian High _ before Rocky Mountain and„no, they don't paint them different colors or give modulation of different architectural design. So, if certainly -- your decision to -- to move. forward I -- are you ,~ the ones that requested reconsideration? Certainly the couple who initiated this, if you have any questions of them to help with your decision to decide if this should be reconsidered or not. Rountree: Madam Mayor, it would be my desire to hear from the folks. -- they have been through this agony for the last hour, they ought to get an opportunity to Ytell us -- De Weerd: We°think we are really interesting, but we have heard otherwise. If you would like to make comment, if you would like to come forward. Nary: -Madam Mayor? ` ~ p ~ 1` a .. !A s~ 1. Meridian City Council , September 8, 2009 Page 23 of 34 E ~: a t. De Weerd: Just -- yes. Nary: Just to be-sure that -- this is`not an opportunity for evidence, this is, really, just an opportunity to just make a decision on whether to hear it again. So, I didn't want you to testify is all. ' De Weerd: If you will, please, state your name and address for the record. Watson: Keith Watson. M.Watson: And Margo Watson. ~. De Weerd: Thank you. And your address? Watson: We are at 762 West Cagney and it's adjacent -- on that north -- northwest corner of the Paramount property. De Weerd: Thank you. Mr.,Rountree, did you have questions? Rountree: I guess, you know, you stated your position before, you were concerned primarily about the color. Watson: We are primarily about the color. Other neighbors are concerned about the. presence of it altogether,. but our view is that we understand that there is a need for it and we accept that, but it needs to .fit into the community and without giving testimony; it's kind of like the thing that just happened across the street from you with Zamzows, this big white ugly elephant there and now you come and you look~at it and it fits into the community .perfectly -- or fits in with this building very nice. And that's all we are asking for ourselves in Paramount is that they color that thing, so that it meets the community and it blends in with the school. IVI:Watson: I did notice -- I mean one comment I did hear or a question that was asked whether it was visible from a street. There are homes that surround three sides of the school and, of course, opposite all of the streets. It is very visible from the street. Its very,glaring. Especially now that they have put bright white railing on it. But it's not on the edge of a subdivision, it's in the middle of a subdivision. De Weerd: pl'll bet our fire department had something to do with the big..white fence or something. A railing or something. Sorry, Joe. M.Watson: We are the home where the Arbor Tree Day was. Watson: -Yeah. Which you attended. De Weerd: Oh, we visited with you in your backyard. ~. a d .~ A 4 Meridian City Council September 8, 2009 Page 24 of 34 ~ Watson: That was exactly -- nice to see you again. De Weerd: Nice to see you. ' } Watson: So, it's really -- for us it's .not an issue of should it be there, for us it's an issue that it should blend in with the community, because it's just some white color they threw out and I went to the Dean -- I mean I went to Dean -- the principal -- Nary: Probably. shouldn't get into that. f De Weerd: That's why we =that's why we invite him to keep us out of trouble. Watson: I understand. Rountree: Appreciate your comments. De Weerd: I know. It's That fine line of whafiis information and what=is testimony. I ` Watson: The only thing I could encourage you to do is to drive by and have a look and you would clearly see that it's out of character with the community and we have such a , fabulous community here, you lose -- yo:u lose part of -- if you lose track of that process, a then, you know, you turn into Nampa. Hoaglun: That wasn't testimony, that was just -- i De Weerd: Good thing we are not on TVTV. R. Rountree: Yeah. 'Cable TV. De Weerd: That was your out loud voice. ,. Watson: Yeah. That's right. a- ' ,De Weerd: Yes, Mr. Rountree. , Rountree: ° Well, I appreciate your concern. Had it been better noticed we would have had this input last week. Whether or not that would have impacted our decision I. don't know. If there is a sense that we want to hear additional information and change our decision, then, we ought to move to set up a request for reconsideration. If we are not ~. going to change or position, there is no sense of putting a bunch of other people through -- 3 Watson: If I could make another comment, Madam Mayor. Reading the minutes of-that August 25th meeting where you approved this, it seems to me the discussion on.the i Council was the architectural aspects of the building, not the color. And it's just .like you . t i ~ t yytt i 7 (' ~~ Meridian City Council September 8, 2009 Page 25 of 34 ~° , x a i ' kind of -- like fhat went right by and clearly when you put it in the middle`of a community that's part of the architectural part, but l didn't see any'"reference in the -- in the minutes ' -- that even any color was discussed. De Weerd: And I guess, you know, just -- I hope I'm not providing testimony. I-will look , that way as I make my comment. The balance that the Council has is, you know, where ~, -- what decision should the city be involved in and what should they not. CC&Rs dictate y oftentimes the architectural aspects -- you know, on this one the school district schoof does anticipate certain things. They will put it iri a preliminary, plat and so colors are never anything we have been involved in selecting or even asking about and those -- those are usually -- and I think that's why Councilman Rountree probably did ask -- is this part of the CC&Rs as kind of that umbrella of looking at appropriateness and.,: its usually not something we get involved in and that's probably why this is such an ° unusual thing for us is we are being asked to reconsider on an element that°we usually . don't go down that road, so -- d ~, Watson: In light of the 'e-mail that you received, as well as my letter that°was filed r timely, I think that as a minimum the residents of Meridian should have -- at least be ° able to provide testimony to this issue to reconsider. ~. Rountree: Thank you. De Weerd: Thank you. That's why you get paid the big bucks. ° a Rountree: Yeah. I guess my comment is on the major decision we made with respect {„ to the zoning certificate, I don't know that I would be inclined to change that decision. Are there other things that we might do to add conditions to that decision, I suppose,. color would. be one.. Identifying what temporary actually means might be another one. I don't know. r Hoaglun: Madam Mayor? 3 Rountree: I think we are going to build some expectations based on the a-mails that we are -- that it's going to go away and I :don't -- I guess from my perspective I don't see , that happening. De Weerd: Mr. Hoaglun. ,; Hoaglun: Just to -- my thinking on that, if Council decides to consider, my vote to have portables at that school. there would not change. I mean they are overcrowded and although my kids are in college now, I do well rem_ ember when they were in elementary school:. being moved from place to place as we are trying to find space and that's not ° any fun to have kids at the neighborhood .school as what -- I want to keep that, preserve that, but at the same time having a structure that does not fit and is glaring and stands out is -- is not'any fun and it does detract from a neighborhood. So, then, it's'a matter of do' we reconsider that, because; then, we can help facilitate between the neighbors `and Meridian City Council September 8, 2009 Page 26 of 34 the school district and, then, are we opening the door to -- are we going to_be doing this ~~ more often on color and different things like that and is that something that Council ' should be getting into in a neighborhood. That's -- that's the tough part of it. I happen to have a white outbuilding since before we were in the city limits and. I feel sorry for my neighbors. One of these days I`m going to change that color, because it's a big white glaring building, but -- so I understand that issue, so -- ~ti . Bird: Madam Mayor? '` De Weerd: Mr. Bird. ,, Bird: I agree with what Councilman Hoaglun just said; that I don't think I would want to see the portable moved, but I also believe that that is a public building and while they -- I guess don't have to adhere to the CC&Rs, I don't think we want a sore. thumb sticking out there. And I -- I believe that the a-mails we got and the -- or the talking that we just had -- not testimony -- (.believe that a solution can be worked out between it. While I' probably would not -- unless something really drastic was brought forward, I would not move to see it removed, because of the crowding they do need it. F De Weerd: Are you providing testimony in this discussion? Nary: Thinking out loud. Bird: It's just a statement. I'm not testifying. Rountree: He hasn't changed his mind. Bird: I° haven't changed my mind yet. Give me a chance. But -- so f would certainly entertain-reconsidering reconsideration of it, to maybe see what we could do to--- to ' make it more presentable if we ..possibly can. Zaremba: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Zaremba. Zaremba: And I would repeat also that I would not be reconsidering whether the building should be there or; not. I think the school needs it and it needs to be there. They have. already said that their plan is, when they don't need it there they are going to move it and reuse it and they will continue to reuse it other places. This may be very simple. If we" went ahead and reconsidered, that means the school district would also >> come and testify and they may very quickly say we are happy to paint it. They need to be maintaining it and -- Bird: They wo'n't. ` ,, t , 3' .. ,. t i Meridian City Council ~' September 8, 2009 3 Page 27 of 34 .§ ~ Zaremba: -- having it fit in. Well, I'd give them that opportunity; but, again, I gue"ss my point is I'm not thinking of withdrawing their ability to have the building there. i~ Hoaglun: Madam Mayor, if {might ask a question of either Anna or Bill. Has the city .ever required -paint colors to be part of the CC&Rs within an area or is that something that's brand new? Canning: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, we don't require CC&Rs, so that's -- that's the developers vision for his µ-- his `development or her development. But the application that was before you the other night was design review. They were appealing a decision of mine with regard to design review. The portables are a principal permitted use, so that the question is not whether or not they can be there, the question was whether or not they met the appropriate design review standards. So, this is a new. area in that it was a design review question, which is fairly new to the -- to the city. Citywide design review. ~ ~~ Rountree: Anna, help out.,, Madam Mayor, please: I believe in some of the design ' review language there is ~°discussions' about colors and their relationship to their ~+ environment. So, it could ~-- could be reconsidered based on the design review, as opposed to the site and I think that needs to be understood, the reconsideration is not about whether or not it can be there, the reconsideration is, again, design review type of activities. v Canning: Yes. De Weerd: So, that a lot of this is -- the reconsideration would be -based on saying that the public hearing sign with the. date and the purpose'was not sufficient? a Canning: Correct. , ,. ,. De Weerd: Did we have in our design review ordinance public noticing guidelines? Canning: Note-within design review. Within the -- nor within the alternative compliance, but within the City Council's,review of a director's decision, yes. , .. ( j Hoaglun: If I might continue with the thinking out-loud process, but it sounds like this is a candidate for a Paint The Town initiative. Rountree: I think it's a great Eagle Scout project myself, but -- Hoaglun: I mean we have a problem. We need to solve the problem. But how we go about it is a matter of making it happen. You know, that's -- t De Weerd: Great City Council public servant project I would say. ° ~, a, Meridian City Council September 8, 2009 Page 28 of 34 + ~ 4 ~.. ~§ Hoaglun: I was going to say, if we have a bunch of high school kids who want to get involved with the Mayor's tasK force, we have a project for them to get involved with on a Saturday. p De Weerd: It looks like the Mayor-has a project. Woaglun: We will have. to pony up a few dollars from our pockets for paint and off we go• Canning: Madam.. Mayor? ~ E De Weerd:+~ Yes. f• ~ . ,. Canning: ° The one statutory time limit with regard to this application was met.- I don't believe -- and Mr. Nary can correct me -- that you -- you have the option of putting off this request for reconsideration for some time if you"would like the school district to work with the homeowners association or the PTA to resolve the issue in a different manner. :That might be an option. De Weerd: So, there is an option to table this to a date certain to see if the school. district and the neighbors could meet to discuss this further? y Canning: I believe so. I don't think there is anything that prohibits it.. ~. Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, there is nothing-that prohibits it. I would indicate -- and this'is not testimony either, but Idid -- l did have contact with the school district- and at least~in my discussion with -- what was the fellow's name? Hammers. Wayne Hammers. He already had contact with the district officials:.. They weren't .interested in this type of discussion and they said we will just see what the Council -- so, we can certainly do it if you'd like, I'm just saying they didn't seem to be interested last week in having that. Now, if you'd like us to be more forceful we certainly can, but they -- my take of that conversation was they are expecting to be back in front of you again.. And just to help maybe clean up a little -- or clean up a little bit of what Anna is saying, because this is a new process, when Mrs. Canning ;and I looked at the ordinance in relation to CZCs, it's not very clear how we would notice these things. It's not required that we send out notice to everybody, but some of the process sort of is -- sort of implies that more notice should be provided and so if it's your opinion -- these folks _are here because if they had been here last week and had raised the issue of color and not just architectural design, in my opinion that's adequate for you to have considered it, based. on what's in your design review standards. So, what they are really claiming today is they didn't get notice. and have any way to "really know they should have been here a week ago and, therefore, now they are asking you to reconsider, your decision, because they would have raised something that was not brought before you and you didn't consider, which is, really, the intent of your reconsideration ordinance. That was the x purpose of it. They weren't a party, which is- `required under our ordinance, but their reason for not being a party, because, again; they-didn't receive adequate notice. I a t; ~. _ ~ r ~, i n ~; Meridian City Council + x }-d September 8, 2009 t Page 29 of 34 ;` do'n't believe the notice wa's legally deficient, but they have awalid argument that they probably should have received more notice than they did and because our process is i; new and recently created, it was -- it was unclear to both myself and Mrs. Canning as to how would we really provide that. So, we didn't provide mailed notices, we didn't provide -- we didn't require they sign the property, although I understand the school district did sign the property, but there was no radius notice mailed to anybody, all it was was noticed on your agenda. ,. De Weerd:n But I think~~~if you look at it on the school site, it certainly doesn't -- if you don't have any kids in °school you're not going to see .that sign. So, I guess that is a , point. That's a huge sign, but it's only applicable if you're going to happen. to drive by it. a Nary: Right. And, again, it wasn't required,-because our ordinance doesn't require it. I 4 think Mrs. Canning and I spoke afterwards and decided that there probably needs to be abetter process for these` as well, because since normal CZCs -- and the only example I can give you that she and I discussed was the McDonald's. Normal CZCs don't ' require notices, they just require -= that because the use is already determined to be okay. So, they are only making sure .they are in~ compliance with your zoning requirements, but when they don't~.meet the standards for design review,. that's a little different than your zoning .,requirements, so you're not having a discussion with the public over whether it can be there, it's what is it going to look dike. Now, it does impact. and it sounds more °like a `CU uor conditional use permit than a normal administrative process. So, I think that's the hybrid we created and that's something I think we are looking toward to maybe make the pr"ocess a little bit better for folks to be able to get adequate notice, so they can provide an objection timely to you. It was a long answer, . but if I was way off the track for: Mrs. Canning, she -- r a ° i =1 De Weerd:- Can .you summarize? Nary: We will hear more about that -- 6. Nary: I can't, but Dean can, so -- Bird: Let's make a motion and, then, we will -- Madam Mayor? ' De Weerd: Mr. Bird.

Nary: Because part of the request was internal, we can work, basically, with the clerk's office, the planning department, and the neighbors to send out the notice, make sure the property is going to have to get posted now, which may now have to get posted on the public right of way, so we will to go through ACRD to do that, ,unless the school will consent to posting, which sometimes happens, sometimes doesn't. But we will have to work with the clerk's- office and Planning to get the site posted, to get the notice up and to find a date. So, the date will be sometime in the next four to six weeks. Is that approximately right? So, at least three weeks. So, four to six is probably =- Canning: I think it's three to~four, usually. . 'Nary:. Yeah. A minimum of three. So, it will be at least four;to six by the time we get notices published, get a consent to post -- or to probably post on the right of way, rather than on the school property, as well as newspaper and .mailed notices, it will be four to six weeks. z~ ,Rountree: So, the soonest will be the 13th?

De Weerd: And 1 guess, Robert, what I would also like us to explore -- I know there is a couple of Eagle Scouts that are looking for projects. Some of the concern here is what the cost to the school district is and that sort of thing. So, if -- and I know that was the PTA's concern. So, our office and with Luke maybe we can look at how we can find that, kind of volunteerism to find a solution before that time frame. Rountree: Process, Madam Mayor. We could probably buy the paint. t De Weerd: Well, I would have actually preferred tabling it to have this opportunity. I didn't think we were going to get involved in picking colors, but -- Simison: Right. And that's the -- only from what I have not heard through the .grapevine, but I think one of the biggest issues is going to be they only want it there for a brief time period and they are going to want to move it to someplace else. So; they will probably either ask for it to go back to another color, if they were to consent to do it. Ithink that's going to be-one of the largest issues is, okay, when we move it we want it , ' to look like all the others we put on other places in the city, which are all white, so -- -' Rountree: There is a good number; of them that need to be -- Bird: I was going to say; have you seen -- have you seen their -- their portable classrooms?

I have visited the gallery and think it's a wonderful space. !would consider it a real privilege to exhibit there. My Vision for the. Exhibit f. This series, tailed "How We Know," addresses knowledge, imagination and creativity, and combines the "Arts" with the "Sciences." Over the past five years, i have created a body of work -- consisting of .polyester-plate lithographs*, painted collages; and digital imagery-- that plays with scientific and mathematical concepts as inspired by a+itiguatecl illustrations. Currently, the series totals aver 30 lithographs, plus larger-scale hanri-colored pr-inu, collages and paintings. The black backgrounds suggest a btaekbbard,. but also create a feeling of an intimate stage, or possibly a tableau unfolding in the mind. At'first glance; the collages. may seem to be a form of illustration, but my intent is not to present a straightforward explanation of a scientific or mathematic scenario, but to Have fun with science. ` Since thssyseries is mainly monochrome(headily black and white, with same hand-colored pieces), I would propose to also exhibit my bird collages, which are colorful and will complement the main body of work since they are also nature- and science-based, tf the gallery has plexigfaiss cubes for exhibiting small sculptures, I can include a few "bird box" collages, as well. *These' tints begin as digital co{!ages creat~ d with the Photoshop software progranv. Each collage is prf~~ted via P laser jet printer onto a polyester plate. ,These plates replace the pencil-on-stone process o~traditional lithography: Hand-applied pressure transfers ink from the plate to the pallet, replacing the printing press in this relatively-new alternative fine-art printing process. Descriotian of f=xhibit r p 1 envision I can fill the space with the following:. ^ 25-30 framed lithographsw 5 #tamed digital prierts, in tt~re range of 15x20" ^ 3 paintings with the same9 subject matter (more color than black and white ^ 2-3 bird drawers (see example on disk) ^ 2 "bird box" collages if pleaciglass cases are available. .€ {~ ~' i _. ~ ~. _ r ~ , ~~ ~.

Thank you for offering area artists this ~ eat o ortuni g, Pp tY Sincerely, Sandy Marostica ~ Enc. ..~~ ~, f ~~ F I grew upon a-farm in the Roswell area near the IdaholOregon border, and began making art at the age of six, using remains of my mom's paint-by-numbers kits, and my dad's instructions in "how to draw horses." In the following 50 years, 1 built upon that base by experimenting on my own, by taking community classes`in drawing and pamt~mg, and by earning a Bachelors of Fine Arts from Boise State University in 1485, where my main interests,were black-and-white photography and oil painting. Alon side ainting, which has' been a,c ~nstant in my life,l have also used collage, digital imagery and g P printmaking to embody my artistic idea°s. Each medium seems to me to best suit a specific subject. Oil painting has been my choice to create art about the West -its landscapes and people -while digital techniques and lithography have proven perfect media for my series about scientific and mathematical concepts. Collage seems to perfectly fit my "bird" works -and nature itself is a kind of collagel~ Over the . ast 30 ears, I have exhil5ite ~ my work in one-person and group.'exhibits, juried shows and P Y competitions, including: ^ "Idaho Paints Idaho" -The Art Museum of Eastern Idaho ^ "Sustaining Change on the. Ame°rican Farm" - Maryhill Museum , ^ "3$`" Annual Art Exhibit .and Auction" -Yellowstone Art Museum in Billings M work is included in numerous, publi ~ collections, such as: Y ^' Center for Advanced Healing ate St. Alphonsus Regional Medical Center. ^ Boise City's Digits! Art Collection and Visual Chronicle Collection E, ^ Healthwise • Blue Cross of Idaho ^ Student Union Collection at Boise State University ^ Native American Student and' Community Center Collection at Portland State University The works proposed for exhibit at the Initial Point Gallery have earned inclusion in several prestigious festivals and exhibit's in the past four years: ^ Scottsdale Fine Arts and Crafts Festival ^ Sun Valley Center Arts & Crafts' Festival ^ Art in .the Pearl in Portland a ^ National Print Competition and~Exhibition at the University of Missouri at Kansas Ci[jr ^ PACE 2007 and PACE 2045 (a biennial internationaF juried postcard art competition}, Curt Teich Archives, Lake County Discovery Museum in Wauconda, Illinois Other artistic high points in my life are Ithe award of Jentel artist residency (200b), and publication in r the books ["{essages from Idaho {M.J.

The following is a list of the additional work items and requested design fee increase for each: ~ 1. Assistance in obtaining a building permit from Ada County for the addition to the existing pump house. I am requesting a design fee increase of $900 for this item. Any fees charged by Ada County will be paid by the City of Meridian. i 2. Redesign of the pumping equipment to include valuing and piping to automatically by-pass flow from the well on start-up for water quality purposes. There is currently no location to discharge the by-pass flows. The plans will terminate the piping at the north wall of the building addition for' future connection to either a gravity pipeline or pressure pipeline. I am requesting a design fee increase of $2,500 for this item. 3. Add chain link perimeter security fencing to pump house site. I am requesting a design fee increase of $600 for this item. 4. Prepare a preliminary engineering report now required by IDEQ. I am requesting a design fee increase of $2,100 for this item. 5. Plan revisions related to relocation of the fire sprinkler equipment that has been added to the existing booster pump building after the original plans were developed. We will show the relocated position of the fire sprinkler controls, backflow prevention equipment, and building connections on the plans. We will include a bid item for relocation of this equipment, and design of modifications required for the well room addition to the building by a licensed fire sprinkler contractor. I am requesting a design fee increase of $1,300 for this item. 6. Plan revisions to add on-site chlorine generation equipment to the pump house. I am requesting a design fee increase of $4,200 for this item. 7. Revisions to the electrical and mechanical plans associated with the above items. I am requesting a design fee increase of $1,200 for this item. See 8121109 Memo from DC Engineering. 8. Revisions to the SCADA programming associated with the above items. I am requesting a design fee increase of $400 for this item. See 8/21/09 Memo from DC Engineering. Worthington August 25, 2009 Page 2 of 2 9. Prepare Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&ID) drawings for the project. I am requesting a design fee increase of $1,200 for this item. See 8/21/09 Memo from DC Engineering. Task order has snot-to-exceed amount of $28,800. I am requesting an additional $14,400 to cover the additional services as outlined above for a revised total not-to-exceed amount of $43,200.

Corporate Drive Suite 103 Meridian, Idaho 83642 Phone: 208.288.2181 Fax: 208.288.2182 Subject: Blackrock (Well 28) Pump Station Revisions Tim, Thank you very much for the opportunity to provide additional engineering on the Blackrock (Well 28) Pump Station. The following is our proposed fee based on the information that you have provided to us. Project Understanding Based upon your email dated August 18, 2009, the following changes are required: 1. Consider whether we want to continue to limit the VFD to Toshiba, or allow alternates? Provide additional specifications to avoid the issues raised during the Well 27 bid. 2. We need to run the new plans through the Ada County building department to get a building permit for the addition. Add any time necessary to accomplish this task. 3. Afire sprinkler system has been installed in the building. We need to relocate the service and control panels from the west wall of the existing pump room to the west wall of the new pump room and add sprinklers to the new pump room. My thought is to require the contractor to hire a fire sprinkler company to do all of this work. Is the fire sprinkler relocation something your mechanical staff can design? The following is a list of plan changes I have made that affect your design: 1. Moved the VFD to south wall. 2. Moved HVAC unit west to make room for the chlorine equipment. 3. Moved water level monitor to the west side of the pump. DC Engineering 4. Changed flow meter from the propeller type to a mag meter. 5. Added on-site hypochlorite generation equipment to the project. The chlorination equipment is located on the east wall of the pump room as shown. 6. Added a chlorine residual analyzer in the northwest corner of the pump room. 7. Added a solenoid controlled valve at northwest corner of the pump room. 8. The conduits on the outside of the existing building at the southwest corner now have telephone service in them that must be relocated. ' 9. Added a mag meter in existing piping to the PRV in the existing pump room. Schedule • It is anticipated to take approximately 2 weeks to develop revised documents once authorization to proceed has been given. Fee We are requesting a change in fee of $1200 to incorporate the changes listed above. In addition this will impact programming and we would request $400 (Four Hundred Dollars) in additional programming fees. Optional P&ID Fee DC Engineering would like to propose a fee for generating P&ID drawings for the project. This is based on the City of Meridians .desire to develop the P&IDs for all the well systems. These drawings can be produced on a time and material basis not to exceed $1,200 (One Thousand Two Hundred Dollars). Thank you again for the opportunity to work with you. If you have any questions, or require additional information, please do not hesitate to ask.

My hope is that I can provide you with information straight from the source and inform you as to what members of our community are concerned with. National Night Out: Overall I felt this was a great event. I visited five neighborhoods throughout the evening. It was great to see a cross section of presentations from our various police, fire and city council representatives. Each HOA I visited were so impressed,with the time and dedication by City volunteers to make this event a success. Bear Creek: Bear Creek w ys the first event I attended and they had roughly sixty people participating. I spent much of my time speaking with organizers Shana Silvestri and Camille Altringer. We spoke about the importance of strong neighborhoods and the services the City provides..I provided them with a Community Resource Guide and offered to attend a HOA meeting in the future. I Hal Pierce is the HOA president and is exploring how to get a neighborhood pool placed in Bear Creek. According to Hal, there was marketing materials for Bear Creek that spoke to having a pool and cabana house for residents, but it never materialized. Hal would like the City to give some of the park property back to the HOA to build the pool. Hal believes that the HOA deserves something for the land that was given to the City for the park. I spoke with Hal about how developers are often required to add common areas to neighborhoods and that his residents are lucky to have a City park so close to their home. For follow-up, I provided Hal with copies of the developer agreements that line k Mayor's Office' . 33 E'. Broadway Avenue, Meridian, ID 83642 Phone 208-888=4433 . Fax 208-884-8116 . www.meridiancity.org i Page 2 out that the park would be provided to the city as part of the DA. Hal also mentioned that he shared his feelings with Councilman Zaremba at NNO who encouraged Hal to attend a P&Z meeting to share his thoughts. 5 i~ Tully Cove Place: I was fortunate to arrive at the same time as Councilman Bird and our K-9 officers. Our officers did a~drug detection demonstration-for the twenty residents in attendance. They spoke about how our K-9's are viewed'as City employees and that the handlers respect the dog as their partner. Those in attendance were mostly over the age of fifty. I was impressed how our officers tailored their message to speak directly to them. The officers took time to speak about neighborhood and park patrols and what citizens should do if they see something out of the ordinary. HOA president Arlene Baldwin would like Melissa Delany and me to speak to their HOA about Neighborhood Watch and community involvement during their fall meeting in October. I have forwarded the request to Melissa and I will coordinate with Arlene when they have selected a .date and time. ~~~ Tumble Creek.• This HOA~took on a more block party atmosphere with many neighbors barbecuing different foods in their driveway, with bounce houses and snow cone machines in the middle ofthe street. Due to the amount of people and time concerns, I spent time just talking with the residents about anything that was on their mind. I have attended a Tumble Creek HOA meeting before so some people recognized me and what my position entails. The City was complemented on the new website and City Hall and many residents are excited about the Ten Mile interchange. Organizer Kathy Dow requested that I continue to attend~their HOA meetings as a City representative, which I agreed to do. ~ • Field Stone Meadows: This is Melissa Delany's neighborhood and organizer Kat Baron was quick to inform me that any concerns or questions they had would be directed to Melissa. I thanked them for allowing me to attend and spoke to citizens about the Annual Report, MYAC, Youth on?Commissions, Movie Night and the Salmon BBQ. Hartford Estates: Becaus ~ Hartford Estates was also holding their HOA meeting, this was my last stop. I was asked to speak on ways the City communicates with Meridian citizens. I provided copies of City' News, the Annual Report, and Resource Guide. I spoke about our growing relationships with the media and how the City is communicating directly with the citizens via blogs, Facebook, RSS etc. Some board members were upset about the closure of Ten Mile Road for construction on the interchange, despite that it will decrease overall construction by a year. Many believe that is only an excuse and'that the intersection will not be completed in time. While small (eight attendees) the group was notably hostile and not well informed. The board believed the City financedsome or' all of City Hall; I informed them that one of the many great things about City Hall is that we paid cash for the building and walked in debt free. I also received questions about the 2010 budget and financial transparency. I was able to talk about the proposed budget and our ability to maintain city services and staff levels. In addition I spoke about the City's effort to provide full financial transparency in the f ,' I F Page 3 ~' near future. Overall while somewhat hostile, the HOA was receptive to receiving the information. I agreed to provide them annual updates, and to continue to attend their meetings every year or as requested on their behalf. Ten Mile Town Hall: Approximately sixty people attended the meeting. The discussion primarily revolved around potential noise and traffic diversions that could result because of construction. This event was not well planned; a representative from ACHD was unavailable to answer questions regarding potential traffic pattern changes and projected congestion. ITD was quick to point out that the meeting was designed to focus on noise and they would work.with~ACHD to get responses to all questions posed. As soon as those questions are answered I will include in that weeks report. Below are a list of the questions asked (some questions were asked multiple times) that receives responses. How many pile drivers (a large hammer like structure designed to pound support beams approximately 50-60 feet underground, also the main culprit of noise) will be used on the Ten Mile project? The winning contract bidder included the use of one pile driver; adding a second pile driver would have only decreased the time slightly and would have made it impossible to fund How long will the pile drivers be in use? August through January with a break during the month of November. ~ What is the amount of time ~~the pile drivers can operate? The drivers will operate from 7:00 AM unti19:00 PM What roads will construction trucks use to access the job area? Trucks will use all available roads and approved streets, attention will be placed to limit the amount of disturbances of neighborhoods. How will farmers access their land? Roads will be open for farmer use, as well as accommodate the school district bussing program. How long will Ten Mile Road be inaccessible? The goal is eighteen months ~~ Where is the earth material being used from? A quarry near the airport on Gowin Road. Will the trucks be covered? 111 machinery will adhere to all federal, state, and local laws ,~ and ordnances. i Facebook information: We received heavy traffic and participation on our Facebook page on any given week. Lary to provide relevant information updates and promote other community events and happenings. One particular day I received information regarding the Starbucks in Meridian where one car paid for the car behind it. That created a chain it { ,, ,': _.

This request for reconsideration is in response to the City Council's approval of the temporary classroom building at the Paramount Elementary School. (Aug 25 Meeting, Item #8 - AP 09-002). I have been informed by th ~ City Attorney's office that no`written notice of the City Council Meeting, which included this agenda item, was required to be mailed to any property owners likely to be impacted by any decision. Consequently, no Paramount residents presented either oral or written testimony at the Council meeting. The CCR's of the Paramount Subdivision are quite specific as to architectural design and color schemes. Though our°residents would prefer not to have temporary classrooms spread through the school g'rounds,'we understand and accept the need for such structures. However, we believe that both Planning and Zoning and the Council's decision in this approval process failed to take into account our community standards in regards to color scheme. Th'e installed structure's exterior paint color is not compatible with these standards. In fact, the structure in its present color is extremely annoying, can potentially lower our property values and denies us quiet enjoyment of our adjoining properties. I have tried to engage the Meridian School District on this matter but they have been either unresponsive or argumentative. Please accept this request for reconsideration and allow us to participate in the dialogue that impacts our community; and our property values.

Item #8 k ` AP09 9/8/2009 - ~ k. ~ n_ Page 2 of 2 _ ~ ~~ ~ 6 L 002) Message Mayor Tammy de Weerd and City Council Members, I am writing to ask for a request for reconsideration regarding the City Council's approval of the temporary classroom located on the grounds of Paramount Elementary School. (Aug 25 Meeting, Item #8 - AP 09-002) The Meridian school district'failed fb follow the procedures and failed the residents of Paramount. This shows their lack of consideration to Paramount residents and the CCR's of Paramount. Instead or working on the issues addressed by the Planning and Zoning staff, the district circumvented the process and went straight to the Meridian City Council for approval. The district needs to be held account-table for their actions and needs to following the guidelines just as any other resident. We are only asking for the Request for Reconsideration so we as residents can be engaged in the process, just as we should have been from the beginning. We initially expressed our concerns with the Sup'erintendant of the district and there was no response. The mobile structure has us as homeowners, which border Paramount Elementary, concerned in the following ways: Paramount Elementary is a new school, the need for a mobile structure to us seems extremely premature and the mobile structure as it, stands is an eyesore (the color and the structure itself resembles a mobile home) and we are concerned it -will affect our property'values. Please consider this request, so we as residents can mitigate the impact of the mobile structure. Sincerely, Eric and Whitney Wood 503 West Valentino Meridian, Idaho 9/8/2009 r ,.
