The subdivision is generally located on the east side of Blackcat Road approximately 1/2 mile North of Fairview (Cherry Lane). Brighton Corporation's address and telephone number is: 12426 W. Explorer Drive Boise, ID 83713 (208) 378-4000 An irrigation ditch flows across Ashford Greens Subdivision from east to west, generally from the existing west boundary of "original" Cherry Lane Golf Course, west to Blackcat Raod. The owners of this irrigation ditch are Brighton Corporation and Dean Langley, a Meridian resident who lives in the area where the subdivision is being developed. Dean's address and telephone number is: 3185 N. Blackcat Road Meridian, ID 83642 (208) 888-7223 With the development of the subdivision and working closely with Mr. Langley, Brighton Corporation tiled the irrigation ditch through the subdivision. The ditch at all times is located in subdivision common area and parallel to public right of way which allows easy access for maintenance and/or repair should the need arise. Using good engineering practices in design and construction, Brighton Corporation tiled the irrigation ditch, unaware of a City Ordinance restricting the distance between manholes to 400'. The reasons for constructing and designing manholes which exceeds the allowed 400 feet between them are as follows: The ditch is placed in common area and adjacent to public right of way which allows. excellent access to the ditch at all times for maintenance and repair. The course of the ditch does not jog around and between lot lines and fences with 12426 W. Explorer Drive, Suite 220 ~ Boise, Idaho 83713 TEL 208-378-4000 FAX 208-377-8962 • • sharp angle points, which essentially results in limited or no access for cleaning and repair equipment. 2. Modern cleaning equipment has the capacity to clean ditches of this size for up to 700 feet and greater. The company, Master Rooter, can clean up to a distance of 680 feet and Roto Rooter, by adding a second hose (coupling 2 hoses together) has the capability of cleaning up to 720 feet. (Additionally, there is access to all manholes which essentially reduces the cleaning distance by one-half of what it would be with access at only one end.) 3. With fewer manholes/cleanout structures in the ditch, the flow characteristics increase, which allow for more water to be passed through the pipeline. 4. Under the circumstances stated above, good engineering practices would not only allow but encourage manholes at distances greater than 400 feet. A set of design plans, which are also "as-built" plans are enclosed depicting the proposed addition of one manhole (Irrigation Box 4A) and requesting from the City Council a variance to allow for spacing of approximately 500 feet between Irrigation Boxes #3 and #4 and between Irrigation Boxes #5 and $6. Sincerely yours, iviixe i anner BRIGHTON 2 • June 30, 1997 Mr. Gary Smith City of Meridian 33 E. Idaho Meridian, Idaho 83642 Dear Gary: • As requested by Mr. Mike Tanner with Brighton Corporation, I am writing this letter to verify the current status of our irrigation water delivery through the Ashford Greens development on Black Cat Road. Since this past fall, Mike has worked with our family to determine the best method of water delivery from the Eight Mile lateral. We both saw advantages in co-mingling our two heads of water at the headgate and then split our water back out at the delivery point on Black Cat Road via a submersible weir. At this time we are pleased with the 18 inch line that has been installed along with the cleanout boxes and gate/measuring systems. Mike has checked with us several times since the irrigation water has been turned in this spring to discuss the performance of the new pipeline. We have identified some minor "fine tuning" points to work on as needed based on the ongoing performance of the pipeline. We are satisfied with the work of the Brighton Corporation and Mike Tanner at this time and do not foresee any major concerns or issues presenting themselves. Mike has assured us he will respond to any issues that may need to be addressed as necessary.

If you are referring to the Langely delivery lateral, the Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District has no comment as this is a private wateruser lateral beyond our point of delivery.

Mr. Eddy would you like to come up and answer any questions that we might have on this? (Inaudible) Council's decision on the preliminary plat then? Morrow. Shari you have a comment? Stiles: Mr. Mayor and Council I just wanted to make sure that you are referring to the revised plat that has been received that shows the R-4 culdesac off of Pine instead of the R-15. Morrow. Mr. Mayor, I would move that we approve the preliminary plat for Haven Cove Subdivision No. 7 by Meridian Land Development Company, that would be the plat that Ms. Stiles has indicated that we will call the revised plat and have it subject to all staff conditions. Rountree: Second Cowie: Motion made by Mr. Morrow, second by Mr. Rountree for the preliminary plat approval, any further discussion? All those in favor? Opposed? MOTION CARRIED: All Yea ITEM #14: PUBLIC HEARING: REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE ON THE LANGELY DITCH BY BRIGHTON CORPORATION: Corrie: Is there a representative from Brighton Corporation here tonight? Mike Tanner, 12426 W. Explorer Drive, Boise, was sworn by the City Attorney. Tanner: Mayor and Council this is kind of a clean up measure from a ditch that we tiled last fall with phase one of Ashford Greens Subdivision. At the time we put it in we were not aware that there was an ordinance relating to maximum distances between manholes or clean out structures in pipelines, an ordinance by the Council. We found that out with phase 2 and we do have in working with Mr. Gary Smith the City Engineer we have agreed to put in one manhole, an additional manhole or clean out structure and then request a variance from this Council for two other distances to exceed the ordinance by 100 feet approximately a piece. In other words to be 500 feet between clean out structures rather than an ordinance mandating 400 feet. Reasons for that or two or three and I would just like to share that with you. Number one we have a pipe line in a ditch that is fully accessible on it entire length. And Tallimore Blvd. which is the major blvd. going in from Black Cat Road all the way back to the east to the club house this irrigation ditch is tiled in the common area just right adjacent on the south side of + x • • Meridian City Council August 19, 1997 Page 21 this right of way. Fully accessible for cleaning, for repair, for whatever purposes. So it is not a situation where wee have a ditch that winds between back yards, it jogs at lot lines, it is difficult to get into and t think that is the .major reason maybe why the ordinance would speak to a 400 foot length. .Another reason is that the flow characteristics with less clean outs, less manholes, are increased the losses are actually reduced, it is capable of carrying more water. This is good of course for all the users in the ditch. We actually get a better pipeline. It is good engineering practices to lengthen those manholes if you have access and the ability to access for repair and maintenance of the ditch. We do have cleaning equipment now that will go sic to seven hundred feet, standard by any of our Roto-Rooter, Master Rooter services that can access that right there at Talimore Boulevard and clean that from manhole to manhole. And additionally I would say that this is something that is approved and acceptable by both of the users on the ditch. Those two users are Mr. Dean Langley and Brighton Corporation because we have co-mingled our waters and we carry our pressure irrigation water in this ditch down to where we divide it and we pressurize it and we pump it through our pressure irrigation system and divide it there with Mr. Langley. We have worked well with him, he, we certainly have let him know fully what is going on and tried to take care of him and all of his irrigating .interests. He has been pleased so far with everything that we have done. So we do feel like Mayor and Council that this is under these circumstances it is a good situation, now a bad situation, kind of a clean up item from this past phase and we ask your approval on this particular variance. Corrie: Thank you, any questions of the Council? Is there anyone else from the public that would like to issue testimony in this public hearing? Rountree: I had a question of staff, Gary does this pose a technical problem? Smith: No it doesn't. Corrie: Council, any further discussion? I will close the public hearing. Morrow. Mr. Mayor, I would move that we instruct the City Attomey to prepare findings of fact and conclusions of law for the variance on the Langley ditch by Brighton Corporation. Rountree: Second Corrie: Motion made by Mr. Morrow, second by Mr. Rountree to direct the City Attorney to draw up findings of fact and conclusions of law, any further discussion? Hearing none, all those in favor? Opposed?
