MOTION CARRIED: All Yea ITEM #17: U.S. BANK MERIDIAN BRANCH -REQUEST FOR TEMPORARY PERMIT EXTENSION FOR TEMPORARY BRANCH BUILDING: ' Kingsford: As your request indicates now they are talking about August 15, this comes about because of the merger with West One and the time frame that they have to close the bank and West One and U.S. Bank's agreement as to when they phase Idaho's, they are going to do it last because it is a much larger area they are doing Washington, Oregon, Utah and then Idaho last. Morrow: So let me ask you this, so if we don't approve this extension does that expedite the merger? Kingsford: I am sure that is going to have them really sweating. I think what it does do is it represents a problem for them dealing with the feds on closure of a branch. Clearly Council's concerns about this branch all along have been well founded. As it turns out I am not sure there is a whole lot that might have been done. Regardless of that, that is the position we are in. (Inaudible) Kingsford: Certainly do whatever you want, I think it constitutes a problem as I understand I think the feds could pull their Idaho Charter for U.S. Bank. Now having said that I don't know as it makes a whole lot of difference because the charter they will be operating under would be the one that West One has when they merge anyway. Might be beneficial to them I don't know. But you dispose Lucy and others out into the elements 1 suppose. Yerrington: Mr. Mayor, could I read the motion of the last time? Kingsford: I know what we said, but go ahead. Yerrington: "I make the motion the we extend this to August 15 of this year and no further." Kingsford: You may have noticed that I didn't make recommendation one way or the other, clearly I won't have to break a tie so you do whatever you want. • Meridian City Council December 5, 1995 Page 30 Corrie: Mr. Mayor, I move that we approve the request for temporary extension to August 15, 1996 with no further extensions.

Fairview Meridian, Idaho 83642 Dear Sheri, Due to the recent announcement of the proposed merger between U.S. Bank and West One Bank, we would like to request a further extension of the permit for our temporary branch building. The City Council granted us an extension to August 1 Sth. It was our intent to have occupied our new building and have the temporary building off site prior to that date. The proposed merger now makes our continued progression very questionable. West One Bank has three operating branchs in Meridian, one of which is adjacent to our present site. The proposed merger is anticipated to be completed by December 31, 1995, if all approvals are received. If for some reason the proposed merger did not receive all approvals, we would then need to work with the City to establish a new completion date for our U.S. Bank Meridian facility. Please pass on our sincere appreciation, to the Mayor and Council li~lembers, for their ongoing support and cooperation. We are committed to being a part of your great City.

Idaho Ave. Meridian, Idaho 83642 Re: U.S. Bank Meridian Branch -Temporary Permit Extension 123 E. Fairview Meridian, Idaho 83642 Dear Sheri, I sent you a letter on 10-30-95, requesting an extension of our Temporary Permit for our Temporary Branch building. In that letter 1 had asked for an extension that would take us to June 1 Sth of next year. I just received information that states our target date has been moved back approximately 60 days, taking us to August I5, 1996. I've enclosed a copy of an internal document that addresses the issues and the reasons for delay. We apologize for further delays on this process. We sincerely appreciate the City's patience and cooperation on this lengthly process. Barring any unforeseen further delays we will have the site vacated by September 1, 1996. Sincerely, Ralph I. Tinsley Corporate Facilities Division BY: Corporate Communicati~s • (503) 275-4864 State-by-state conversion dates finalized CA950124 ~ November 10, 1995 The Merger Steering Committee has. finalized dates for state-by-state bank conversions next year. The dates are as follows: Utah - 4/19/96 Oregon - 6/14/96 Washington - 6/14/96 Idaho - 8/9/96 The dates of some corporate office moves will not change. Branch consolidations will be delayed, but THE HOLDING COMPANY MERGER IN DECEMBER WILL REMAIN THE SAME. Our preliminary conversion dates, set in May this year, were our best estimates at the time. Due to the reasons that follow, the branch conversion dates have been finalized as shown above. Since May, the scope of conversion plans has expanded to include additional systems and products. In addition, reaching a divestiture agreement with regulators took approximately six weeks longer than we anticipated. Last, OSG (Operations Services Group) needs additional time for adding staff to meet the technical requirements of conversions. The Merger Steering Committee recognizes that everyone has worked very hard to prepare for the merger. We are well on our way and on track to meet the new dates, and we are very appreciative of the effort everyone has put into this project to make it a success. s • • Meridian City Council March 7, 1995 Page 38 MOTION CARRIED: All Yea Kingsford: Any time you would like to be in the City pick up an application we would be glad to take you in because we like to clean up those jagged marks.

FAIRVIEW: Kingsford: Would you come forward and make your plea. State your name for the record if you would. Timsley: My name is Ralph Timsley, and I am a construction project manager for US Bancorp the parent company for US Bank. I am requesting from the Mayor and members of the Council that we are granted an extension for the use of our temporary double wide manufactured unit presently sitting at 132 Fairview Avenue. We are in the process of planning a new facility basically directly behind that same unit. And we have run into some unforeseen delays and would like to extend that permit if we could to August 15th to allow us ample time to get our other new unit constructed and remove the temporary one and do the site work necessary. Kingsford: Your current plan then does not call for purchase or utilization of the Seat Cover shop. Timsley: No, that is now history from what I understand. Kingsford: I guess I would just caution you that this is the second extension and we have been hearing about it from a number of people. We are not going to look very favorably on yet another extension. We would like to see a building up and operating by August 15th. Corrie: What do you mean in process, where are you? Do you have the land? Timsley: We own the land, we own the property, we now have just as of today our architect Mr. Patrick McKeegan has delivered sets of drawings to the city for the plan review process permit process if you will for the site plan site work. And the manufactured building that we are in process of trying to get into production if you will. • : Meridian City Council March 7, 1995 Page 39 Corrie: Manufactured building? Timsley: Yes, it is a triple wide type manufactured home that, not home but commercial building if you will that would go behind our present facility. Morrow: Mr. Mayor, quite candidly, did we not have a set of plans for this project that basically were destroyed after being in the building department for a one year anniversary and it was not as I recall a modular type of construction. Kingsford: That is correct, that is when they were looking at using the Seat Cover Factory and so forth. They have not purchased that. What their request is now goes back to basically square one when they were going to build a building in back of where the current mobile home is. New though is the request for modular construction. Morrow: So now is that going to go back through the hearing process? Kingsford: I am not sure what is necessary. Crookston: I am sorry I am not up to speed on this at all. Kingsford: I guess Mr. Morrow what I would perceive if that building, they have their zoning, they are zoned properly, if that building meets our building codes and standards I would assume that it wouldn't have to go back through the hearing process. Crookston: Not if it is zoned for that use. Kingsford: It is zoned for a bank. (Inaudible) Morrow: My question is did they go through a hearing process that there was a presentation for the one building to get to this point? Has there been any hearings? Kingsford: The hearing did not request Walt a specific building only that a building would be built. And where it would located initially was in back of where that current facility is. Then they opted to buy the Seat Cover Factory and I think they were going to incorporate part of that building into their bank. That didn't progress partially because of contaminated ground. And now their request is what you see in front of you there. We just got those plans this afternoon and Will shot just a reduced copy of that for you this evening of that modular building that would go back on the same site that originally they discussed. i • Meridian City Council March 7, 1995 Page 40 McKeegan: I am the architect on this particular project. It is my understanding that the building is an allowed use on the zone and the original requirement for an design review or approval of the building that is to be constructed it is just for the information of the Council. The modular unit is going to be set in the ground on a foundation it is not going to be above ground like the temporary branch. For all intensive purposes it will appear to be as if it was constructed structure on the site. It is going to be in the same location that was originally proposed when we asked for approval of the temporary branch the first time around. The traffic flow, patterns and everything are the same. Again it is my understanding there are no further hearings or any hearings required for approval of a project that is an allowed use in an allowed zone. We are meeting all the set back requirements, we exceeding landscape requirements, we are exceeding the parking. requirements and the building meets the design standards and the construction standards. Kingsford: I don't think we have seen yet plans for actual construction have we? The plans that you dropped off didn't really. McKeegan: That is correct, that is one of the difficulties we are having is the contractor for the construction of that has yet to sign a contract with the bank on that unit. We are meeting tomorrow with the general contractor who is going to take over that responsibility and we will Kingsford: Our building department has not seen plans for that building am I right? McKeegan: They have not seen plans or the engineer drawings for this foundation. Kingsford: Certainly, those will have to be approved and reviewed by the Building Department. McKeegan: Yes, by the Building Department for a building permit process. Morrow: Let me see if I understand these plans that are going to be submitted to us are going to coming from fleetwood or somebody that manufactures modular types of things. McKeegan: Yes and they will be approved by the Idaho State under their jurisdiction for modular buildings. It is going to be a commercial building, it is going to have a (inaudible) exterior, we are going to be putting a vestibule on the front that is similar, uses the same architectural elements that are present in the other US Banks with the (inaudible) and that sort of unit. But it is going to be placed on a foundation in the ground. Morrow: So to make a snide remark on my part, the other cities get custom built banks and we get mobiles. : • Meridian City Council March 7, 1995 Page 41 McKeegans: I can't speak to the banks philosophy on why. You also know, you read in the paper the bank has been downsizing, letting employees go and there are reasons for it. We are just trying to get something that is a little bit more, that is permanent rather than the trailer that is there because we made the commitment that was going to be temporary branch. Kingsford: Other questions? Cowie: Mr. Mayor, what is the size of this going to be, do you have any idea how big it is going to be? McKeegan: 60 by 38 feet approximately 2000 square feet. Con-ie: I am kind of like Walt, a little uncomfortable here for some reason I don't know why. Morrow: Well, quite candidly (inaudible) because I certainly wouldn't vote for this particular presentation. In essence all you are really doing is changing a temporary structure that currently exists there for a bigger structure that is going to be put on a foundation, certainly it is not going to have the aesthetic appeal that the other branches of this particular bank that you represent have. The ones that I have seen and I am thinking in terms of the ones on Fairview and I believe Cloverdale and Emerald and Milwaukee, those are all pretty classy offices. Quite candidly in the back of my mind when we are talking about putting something here in Meridian I visualize this same kind of thing. It is one of those deals that it is basically a loophole that you guys are going through and not something that I am comfortable with but it appears that there is nothing we can do about it. It is definitely not going to be an asset to the community in terms of architectural appeal. Those are my comments. Kingsford: Other comments of the Council? McKeegan: I am sorry you feel that way Mr. Morrow but there are certain budgetary constraints that the bank has to operate under. Architecturally we have worked with the manufacturer to try and make it look something more than just a mobile home. Like I said we are exceeding the landscape standards, we are working with the electrical company to make sure that we just don't have a meter on a post, we want to do some architectural things there. Kingsford: Any other questions or comments of the Council? What is your pleasure with regard to the extension? Yerrington: I will make the motion that we extend this to August 15th of this year and no ~ t Meridian City Council March 7, 1995 Page 42 further.

Miller: My name is Robert Miller, I am a lawyer, I represent the Playground and Mr. and Mrs. Clarke. We have requested that the Playground project be formerly treated as a 3 phase project. Is it possible that I could put a projection on so people could see what I am talking about? I am probably going to need just a little bit of help. Kingsford: We recognize you are an attorney and not a technician. Miller: I am sure you all realize the owner developing this project has made some significant mistakes in trying to develop the project there have been some problems in carrying it forward. Recently we have had a series of meetings with the staff and also faced 2 Councilmen in an effort to get things on a more coherent, logical forward looking tract at a meeting approximately 2 weeks ago. It was suggested that we should bring to the Council a proposal to formerly treat this as a project to be developed in phases. Thank you, I think that is really helpful. I think you will all recognize the project is bounded on the west by Locust Grove and on the South by Eagle Road. As the applicant originally thought they were going to try to develop they had in mind the driving range which is the large area on the east side and which is substantially constructed and the RV park which is the facility right at the intersection of Locust Grove Road and Overland would be constructed simultaneously. The area in the middle which was shown as a tentative miniature golf area vuould be constructed later. That wasn't accurately, completely, clearly communicated to the City and I believe the staff proceeded with the belief that the entire project was going to be constructed simultaneously. We would like the Council to treat it as a 3 phase project with the driving range which is essentially a stand alone facility being treated as one phase.

Our original request was heard and approved during the March 15, 1994 meeting of the Meridian City Council. At that time, Mr. Christian Bourguignon, Idaho Development Manager for U.S. Bancorp stated that it was U.S. Bank of Idaho's desire and intent to complete construction of the permanent structure on our site within six months. Since then, U.S. Bank has learned that redesign of the Cherry Plaza Shopping Center and relocation of Albertson's supermarket will not occur, thus altering the accessibility of the planned building on our site. To mitigate the access problems, in May of this year U.S. Bank began negotiating with Mr. Jay Burrup, the owner of the Seat Cover Factory, in order to acquire rights to that property. Our intent is to remodel Mr. Burrup's building into a U.S. Bank branch. While performing due diligence including drilling of monitoring wells on the Seat Cover Factory property, contamination of the ground water below that property was discovered. U.S. Bank has been working with Mr. Burrup to isolate the source of that contamination and remediate to the Bank's satisfaction. If for some reason the identified contamination issues cannot be resolved, it is U.S. Bank's intention to construct a permanent building on land we currently own. During the last six months, U.S. Bank has also developed a portion of our property as a parking lot for the Cherry Plaza Shopping Center. This work was done in compliance with the easement agreement between the bank and the shopping center, and to demonstrate our commitment to this location. Mailing Address: P.O. Box 1750, Las Vegas, Nevada 89125 • Mayor Grant Kingsford September 29, 1994 Page Two Please consider this request for an extension to our original request to operate at a temporary trailer location until our permanent building is completed.

Fairview. Which is between Cherry Plaza and the Seat Cover Shop. This is a temporary trailer which will act as a branch for a new bank facility that we want to locate. The reason we are doing this is to move into the community and honor our commitment. We have been looking at doing this for the last year. We have been waiting for Albertson's to make their final decision on what they are going to do with their development on the lot behind in Cherry Plaza. They haven't come to a conclusion we have decided not to wait any longer and to move into the community. To do that we would like to put up a temporary trailer. As you can see on the drawing the way we have designed it is to locate it at the front of the lot. Put down some temporary asphalt paving, it won't interfere with the construction of the main facility deeper on the lot. We would like to leave it there while we are building our permanent facility. There shouldn't be More than a 6 month period of time. At which point we would remove the trailer, tear up the asphalt, tie it into the permanent asphalt and grading for the permanent facility. The whole thing should be said and done and without much more time then 6 months. Kingsford: Questions for Christian? Morrow: Do you have some temporary landscaping in terms of making sure it has at • Meridian City Council March 15, 1994 Page 64 least the appearance of something more than just a pull in and pull our trailer? Bourguignon: At this point we don't have anything provided for temporary landscaping, we are at a very small we are real tightthathwerhaveeoom for' without will try to put asphalt down for the whole area interfering with the construction of the permanent branch.

These 3 subdivisions are Tuthill No. 1 which is also known as Saddleview, Englewood, and Kentfiled Manor. Kentfield Manor in going through the minutes the developer did specifically state that he was not willing to give up a site for a fire station. Englewood has given a well lot site in lieu of a fire station site because the lot was not big enough. And Tuthill it was never brought up until the very last moment before the final plat was approved. Englewood and Kentfield Manor are both subject to development agreements, Tuthill does not have that stipulation on it. I ask that you could delete the requirement for a fire station on those 3 subdivisions so that we can sign off on the plats and get them going.

Our original request was heard and approved during the March 15, 1994 meeting of the Meridian City Council. At that time, Mr. Christian Bourguignon, Idaho Development Manager for U.S. Bancorp stated chat it was U.S. Bank of ldallo's desire and intent to complete construction of the permanent structure on our site within six months. Since then, U.S. Bank has learned that redesign of the Cherry Plaza Shopping Center and relocation of Albertson's supermarket will not occur, thus altering the accessibility of the planned building on our site. To mitigate the access problems, in May of this year U.S. Bank began .negotiating with Mr. Jay Burrup, the owner of tl~e Seat Cover Factory, in order to acquire rights to that property. Our intent is to remodel Mr. Burrup's building into a U.S. Bank branch. While performing due diligence including drilling of monitoring wells on the Seat Cover Factory property, contamination of the ground water below that property was discovered. U.S. Bank has been working wide Mr. Burrup to isolate the source of chat contamination and remediate to the Bank's satisfaction. [f for solve reason the identified contamination issues cannot be resolved, is is U.S. Bank's intention to construct a permanent building on land we currently own. During the last six months, U.S. Bank has also developed a portion of our property as a parking lot for the Cherry Plaza She bank a d~the shopping enter, and to demonstrate ours the easement agreerncnt betwee commitment to this location.
