RE: MDA-10-003 -Modification to Development Agreement for Kleiner Park
Honorable Mayor and City Council,
The Ada County Highway District Commission respectfully requests that the Meridian City Council
defer action on MDA-10-003 (Modification to Development Agreement). Two of the three proposed
modifications to this Development Agreement (Items 4(c) and 4(d)) are related to existing public
streets or unopened ACHD right-of-way. As proposed, the modifications conflict with ACHD policies
and previous actions. To avoid placing the applicant in the position of receiving conflicting
requirements from the two agencies, ACHD would recommend that these issues be heard with the
Kleiner Park Certificate of Zoning Compliance (CZC) application to provide the full context of the
issues to the deliberations. If an action must be taken on MDA-10-003 prior to submittal of the
CZC application, ACHD requests that items 4(c) and 4(d) be approved as previously proposed
without the requested modifications.
The representative for the park project (Parametrix) has indicated that a CZC application will be
submitted to the City in March, and then forwarded to ACHD for review and comment. Our staff
has worked with Parametrix for the last several months with regard to recommended roadway
requirements and layouts in association with the proposed park site, but would like the opportunity
to work with your staff to determine the best solution to these issues for both agencies.
Additionally, the Commission would like the opportunity to hold a public meeting on the Kleiner
Park CZC application and hear public testimony on these issues prior to any decisions being made
about the ACRD rights-of-way.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
,?
herry uber, President
