Hearing none I will close the public hearing. Any further discussion? I will entertain a motion to your effect Mr. Morrow. Morrow. I would move to table to November 5tH Tolsma: Second Corrie: Motion made to continue this, are you asking for a continue of the public hearing or just continue this? Okay, continue the discussion until November 5th, any further discussion? All those in favor? Opposed? MOTION CARRIED: All Yea Morrow. Mr. Mayor, as a point of clarification for Mr. Hepworth, what we are doing is tabling until the information comes in. Then November 5th we would instruct the City Attorney to draw up findings of fact and conclusions. ITEM #15: PUBLIC HEARING CONTINUED FROM OCTOBER 7,1997: REQUEST FOR A CHILD CARE PRESCHOOL FOR 8 TO 10 CHILDREN BY TYIA LOFTON — 2261 E. KATELYN: Corrie: I will open the public hearing at this time, is there a representative of the child preschool here tonight? Shari did they know about this tonight as well? They were notified. Morrow. Mr. Mayor, if memory serves me this is the second failure to show by these folks, I would move that we remove it from the future agenda. Bentley: Second Corrie: Just a minute, is there anybody else from the public that would like to issue testimony in this? Dave Olsen, 2145 East Katelyn, Meridian, .was sworn by the City Attorney. Olsen: I just want to go on record and state that I don't know if the decision has been made or not to decline this. I am opposed to it for the increased traffic on a very small street in a subdivision. It is not a through street and by allowing ten children it would increase the traffic flow a lot. There is only 18 houses on the street counting both sides of the street. I just want to go on record again, thank you. a• Meridian City Council October 21, 1997 Page 12 Come: Thank you Mr. Olson, anyone else from the public that would like to issue testimony? Mike Levers, 2150 East Katelyn Drive, Meridian, was sworn by the City Attorney. Levers: Besides agreeing with Mr. Olsen as to what he said, I would like to also state that I am not in favor of a day care in our neighborhood for numerous reasons. One 1 brought our covenants to Kearney Place Subdivision which I can give to you for evidence but it clearly states in here that no business is to be operated in the neighborhood other than an occasional garage sale. I think twice a year it allows for a garage sale. These folks moved into the neighborhood with knowledge of the these covenants and then want to change it to have a business in the neighborhood. That coupled with the fact our street doesn't lead anywhere it circles around to another drive. It would increase the traffic dramatically. There are at least 18 children in half a block area there, that if there were ten cars driving in and out of the subdivision twice a day to drop off and pick up that is 20 extra cars through there with 17 kids in the neighborhood. I don't feel that is particular safe. That coupled with the fact we wouldn't know who these people are. Only Mrs. Lofton would know, I don't feel secure having strangers in my neighborhood that I don't know who they are with my daughter six years old. She plays out in the front where there is kind of a little culdesac. There is a map in here too you can look at it. It is sort of a culdesac type deal where kids ride their bicycles and play, it is out of the traffic but it is part of the street. For those reasons I am opposed to them opening a day care in our neighborhood also. Corrie: Anyone else that would like to issue testimony at this time? Seeing none, any further discussion Council before I close the public hearing? Morrow. My only point of discussion is my motion was out of order, I missed the continued part of the public hearing. So I will withdraw that at this time. And say that it is appropriate that from my perspective in terms of discussion I did not wish to continue the public hearing awaiting them to testify. They have had two opportunities and so it makes sense from my standpoint to go ahead and close the public hearing. Corrie: At this point I will close the public hearing. We have the decision that you can make now Mr. Morrow. Morrow. My motion would be that this item be dropped from the agenda for failure of the applicant to appear on two occasions and offer testimony in support of their own application. Bentley: Second Corrie: Motion is made and seconded that we drop the request for a child care preschool conditional use permit, any further discussion? All those in favor? Opposed? Meridian City Council October 21, 1997 Page 13 MOTION CARRIED: All Yea ITEM #16: FINAL PLAT FOR THE LAKE AT CHERRY LANE NO. 7, 59 LOTS BY STEINER DEVELOPMENT: Corrie: I guess the final plat, would you like to say anything? Bradbury: Mr. Mayor and members of the Council I am Steve Bradbury I have been asked to present the final plat for the Lake at Cherry Lane No. 7 this evening. I really don't have a whole lot of presentation to make. I understand you have a packet of all of the materials that were submitted about a month ago. It is probably worth pointing out a couple of modifications that were made from the preliminary plat to the final plat just so that you will know that they are there. Many of these were as a result of requirements that were made or conditions that were imposed upon the approval of the preliminary plat. The first is that the right of ways have been widened from 40 feet which was originally proposed to 42 feet as required by the Council and that would include a 5 foot sidewalk on one side of the street also as approved by the Council. And in addition in order to provide a little bit more room for some setbacks and to provide for some staggering of the building fronts along the streets of the subdivision the lot depths not all of them but most of the lot depths were increased from 99 feet to 101 feet. And you can see the dimension as shown on the final plat. That allowed for that staggering to take place so we have a minimum setback of 18 feet up to as much as 21 feet. Most of the lots again were increased in width from the originally proposed and approved 33 feet to 35 feet. That is with exception of some of the interior lots. When I say interior lots I mean lots that are on the inside of the triplex of fourplex unit. So we have all in all the lot sizes on average have grown. The number of lots was reduced from 60 to 56 that enabled some of this extra room to be utilized for the streets and other purposes. The parcel itself that these comprised that takes the preliminary plat the width of that was increased by 13 feet and that is where the extra right of way and the extra lot depths footage came from. That added about 8000 some square feet to the total plat. The unit sizes that are proposed for approval are in the 1200 square foot plus range. That was approved at preliminary plat 1160 square feet. So all in all what we have is a project with less density, larger lots on average, and larger units than what you originally saw back at the preliminary plat stage. It is my understanding that Mr. Campbell met with Gary and Shari and Bruce for design review purposes presented to them three elevation choices that would be used throughout the project. That is also something that the City Council requested as a condition of approval for preliminary plat. That also showed the staggered setbacks and I think you have a drawing in there in your package that shows that. That is also my understanding that you folks may have already seen those elevations as well. Keith Jacobs the project engineer has responded to the staffs comments by his letter of October 17, 1997. 1 expect that you probably have a copy of that somewhere in front of you. I think and I guess now is the time that we find out that everything is in order with respect to those issues. There was one additional item tha: wasn't addressed in the letter tnat was addressed as an item that we tried to show to you folks (End of Tape) driveway treatments would work.

Rountree: I have a question for Shari, on this variance it would be for this sign and no additions to this particular standard or would the variance allow somebody to come along and request the owner of the sign to put their shingle up there as well. Clear down to the landscaper. Stiles: If they get a variance and a sign permit it will be as they have presented it in their sign permit application. Corrie: Any further questions? I will close the public hearing. Morrow. Mr. Mayor, I move that we instruct the City Attorney to prepare the findings of fact and conclusions of law on the request by William Ritter, 317 W. Cherry Lane. Bentley: Second Corrie: Motion made and seconded that we draw up findings of fact and conclusions of law for the 21 rt of October, all those in favor? Opposed? MOTION CARRIED: All Yea ITEM #11: PUBLIC HEARING: REQUEST FOR CHILD CARE/PRESCHOOL FOR 8 TO 10 CHILDREN BY TYIA LOFTON - 2261 EAST KATELYN: Corrie: I will open the public hearing at this time and ask the owner or representative of the Child Care and preschool to step forward. Is there anyone from the public that would like to issue testimony? David Olson, 2145 East Katelyn, Meridian, was sworn by the City Attorney. Olson: I won't take a lot of your time, I just want to state that I am opposed to allowing the day care at this location. The reason being is for the increased traffic that would be generated on Katelyn Drive. Katelyn Drive is not a through street so all of the traffic that comes to the day care would go through an intersection of East Chateau and Katelyn Drive and I don't speak in public really well so I am really nervous. The intersection right now is an unmarked intersection that is a three way unmarked intersection. There are a lot of children in the subdivision. By allowing ten people or ten children at a day care you could increase the traffic through that intersection of 40 cars a day. That is about (inaudible) And I think that is an awful lot for a residential subdivision. So I just want that to go on record and let you guys decide what you want to do. Morrow. Question Mr. Olson, it is my understanding the application that there are already (inaudible) they are asking to increase it by two children. Meridian City Council • October 7, 1997 Page 25 Olson: I don't know if that has ever been approved that there is a day care there. It was my understanding they were applying to allow children there right now. I am not under the understanding that they are currently running a day care there. Morrow. (Inaudible) Olson: There was a hearing at the Planning and Zoning Commission probably about a month ago and I was out of town and unable to attend that. I thought that was for when you, conditional use permit is what this is for. I Morrow. t may very well be, it may (inaudible) so the best of your knowledge there is not currently Olson: To the best of my knowledge, but maybe that is where the all the commission (Inaudible) So six or less they don't need to apply for anything and they want to increase it from Crookston: You do, it is five or less it is an accessory use. Olson: I guess what I am asking is at least take a look at the intersection and look at the traffic patterns there before you grant this. Thank you Corrie: Anyone else from the public that would like to issue testimony at this time? Helen Sharp, 2445 Wingate Lane, Meridian, was sworn by the City Attorney. Sharp: I am not really directly involved however I am within the 300 feet of this so it isn't going to greatly affect me. The comment that I have here tonight since many of you have seen me here more than once I am asking please would you take into consideration the people that are really affected by this decision of 4 people our councilmen and of course our Mayor voting if we have to break a tie. Because the people that live on Katelyn and close by are the ones that have to live with it once your decision is reached. I went over there and walked by the property and he is right it isn't a through street and it is a three way. So the access in and out of that property would be very limited. I am having a little problem because the people requesting this aren't here and I don't know if it is because the people in the neighborhood don't really care or if they have decided what difference does it make we can spout off and that is like talking into the wind why waste your time. So I would ask that you please take into consideration the people affected by your decision. Thank you Corrie: Thank you Mrs. Sharp, anyone else that would like to issue testimony? Council, questions or discussion? i • Meridian City Council October 7, 1997 Page 26 Bentley: Mr. Mayor, seeing as how the applicant isn't here my feelings would be that we continue the public hearing and notify the applicant. If the don't show up the next scheduled appointment that we drop the application. Morrow. Second Corrie: Motion made and seconded that continue the public hearing with the notification to the applicant if they don't show up the 216t that their application will be dropped from the agenda, all those in favor? Opposed? MOTION CARRIED: All Yea ITEM #12: PUBLIC HEARING: REQUEST FOR ANNEXATION AND ZONING OF 35.69 ACRES TO R4 FOR TURNBERRY SUBDIVISION BY BENCHMARK LAND CO. — BLACK CAT ROAD BETWEEN USTICK AND CHERRY LANE: Corrie: At this time I will open the public hearing and invite the representative of the annexation and zoning to step forward please. Ken Ross, 16325 SW Bens Ferry Road, Lake Oswego, OR, was sworn by the City Attorney. Ross: I am the senior project manager over the Washington and Idaho projects. The project manager that is assigned to this particular project was playing with his kid on Sunday and hurt his back so he is not here tonight. So because of that a lot of the issues regarding planning, design engineering and so forth I am going to defer to Van Elg who is sitting back there and Dean Briggs with Briggs Engineering. I would like to just take a moment to introduce our firm who we are, do as much as I am capable of doing in regards to this particular project before I turn it over to them. We are Pacific Land Management is a tri-state development firm. We started in the Portland, Oregon tri -county area and have in the last four or five years expanded to Washington and now Idaho. This is our first project in the State of Idaho and we are very excited about this project. As has been mentioned before it is a 35 acre parcel it is across the street from Ashford Greens. It is a new development an upper scale development. It has been our heart from the beginning to try to put together a development that is complimentary not necessarily competitive to it but complimentary to it. So we have looked at producing a product that would not directly compete with it but would compliment that existing product. We have looked at a minimum of 8,000 square foot lots for this site and there is I think 118 of them. They go from the smallest lot of 8,000 up to a little over 16,000 square foot lot. Our intent for this particular project was to do something unique. One of the things that we are faced with in developments in Washington and Oregon is usually some significant topography issues. We found that is really not the case in Meridian there is not that much topography around here. So what we looked toward for this. particular development was design. To try to do something unique something that would enhance livability. So the design you are going to see tonight I hope reflects that.

Meridian Planning & ZoI*g Commission August 12, 1997 Page 9 Borup: You said 6 employees 3 full time, 2 part time? Lofton: No 6 children, 3 full time and 3 part time. Borup: Any employees? Lofton: No just me. Borup: So at this point do you have any ideas on ages of children? Lofton: Zero to five. Johnson: Have you read the recommendations from the staff? Lofton: No I have not. Johnson: You don't have this letter dated August 1" Lofton: No it has not been given to me, I haven't received anything in the mail anyway. Johnson: Well you need to get a copy of it because there are several conditions in tiles our City there, 16 in fact in the letter prepared by Bruce Freckleton and Engineer assistant and P & Z Administrator. There are some requirements on your part, one of the things that is in there is a question, item 13 is what are your proposed hours of operation. Lofton: 5:30 a.m. to 6:00 P.M. Johnson: Here is a copy for you of that letter and I am surprised you don't have it because it went out quite a while ago. Anyway you need to familiarize yourself with those and I didn't mean to interrupt Commissioner Borup, were you finished? Borup: That was my next question was if she had a any comments on the staff -comments. Have you been doing preschool, child care previously to Lofton: I have worked at a child care facility here in Meridian. Borup: Has that been your experience that they start arriving at 5:30? Lofton: No, I just have a friend that I have been watching part time and she knew a couple of other people that were interested and I said I would love to but I need to get a permit. Borup: Well I just wonder if you really think they are going to be coming at 5:30. • Meridian Planning & Zo*g Commission August 12, 1997 Page 10 Lofton: Yes I do have several that are interested believe it or not. Borup: At that time, so they have some early shifts they are going to. MacCoy: Chairman Johnson asked the same question about this piece u d litet ture that ask you you received here. I want to kind of spin off of that here because a couple extra questions that go with this. Do you have any open areas in the back of your place that like a swimming pool or ditch or anything like a well? Lofton: No I do not. MacCoy: Your place is fenced already? Lofton: Six feet all the way around. MacCoy: What kind of fence is that, is it a wood fence? Lofton: Yes MacCoy: Does it have a lockable gate on it for a pad lock? Lofton: Yes it does MacCoy: Because kids are pretty good about finding ways to get out. Is your home a two story home? Lofton: It is a two story, I will have a gate at the bottom of the stairway blocking it off because the upstairs will not be used. MacCoy: The Fire Marshall will want to discuss that with you. I have e anothe question here, where was I, you don't plan on taking care of any handicapped dren Lofton: No I do not. It has not arisen and 1 probably do not have the training to do so. MacCoy: What about parking? Lofton: Well I have a three car garage so there is the three spaces in my garage spot and there is easy three spaces in front of the house. MacCoy: You mean on the apron that goes into the garage? Lofton: Yes MacCoy: What about your neighbors have you talked to them about this? Meridian Planning & Zo*g Commission August 12, 1997 Page 11 Lofton: I have talked to most of my neighbors and they are any favor- them yway. call Dan Wood the developer. They haven't come to me withY Problems yet an I have talked to them very personal. I am really good friends with itof them so I asked them before I even started doing this if there was any problem MacCoy: Does your home in a neighborhood that has a homeowners association? Lofton: Yes it is MacCoy: And you will have a set of documents that govern your living conditions in that area. Have you read those? Lofton: Yes I did and there was a question there because he didn't seem to about t thing about a home business and I did talk to Dan Wood about is if no one complained. MacCoy: But you didn't receive a letter or anythingaloverom him out Borfrom anybody in your th s so you don't have homeowners that has authority that is going to Y future problems on this? ing to happen tonight I would probably call Dan Wood Lofton: Deciding on what was go and et, because he is the developer he is the main person that ism to be too worried 9 and I was probably going to get something from him. He didn't see about it. So yes I could get something signed. MacCoy: Well we have a problem with that because cjust d ouo muc hb the lavl but your homeowners association material take precedent have been over there at your place or around that area and (Inaudible) it is not a through street it is a, what would you call it? Lofton: It goes all the way around MacCoy: It goes all the way around but you can't just get in the car and just drive straight on through (inaudible) Lofton: No MacCoy: You have no problem with that then, there is no traffic in other words accept people that live there? Lofton: Yes, there is no big traffic or anything there. MacCoy: I wondered, I didn't sit there and watch the traffic but I wondered what kind of traffic you did have in an area like that. Meridian Planning & Zdag Commission • August 12, 1997 Page 12 Lofton: Just the normal neighborhood traffic, teenagers stuff like that, no major traffic. I think that pretty well answers my questions. Johnson: Do you know Mike and Marie Levers? Lofton: No I do not, I think that is the only people who had a Johnson: Do you have a copy of the letter there that they wrote to the City Council? Lofton: Let me look here, I think they live way down the street on the comer. Johnson: This is a letter in opposition and one of their reasons stated as Commissioner MacCoy referred to they interpret your CC&R's your covenants to be in opposition to your application. They don't agree with the 5:30 a.m. time they think that is too early. They see it as a hazard, they say your street is not a through street they think it is too many children and they worry about home values being affected. So have you had any discussions with these people at all. Lofton: They have not contacted me no. Johnson: Have you contacted them? Lofton: No I have not, I contacted Dan Wood and he did say that they did contact him. He, last of my knowledge when he talked to them they were not opposed at that particular time. Johnson: Well they took the time to write this letter. How far away are they from you? Lofton: I believe they are down the street at the very corner, across the street like 6 houses down, the very comer. Johnson: Their address is 2150, what is your address? Lofton: 2261, 1 know they are not an immediate neighbor because I have talked to all of my immediate neighbors. I know five of them across the street so they have to be on the far end. MacCoy: When you say immediate neighbors that is the ones on both sides of you and back of you. Lofton: My immediate neighbors that I have talked to, two on each side of me, two on the same street and then I have talked to four across the street. MacCoy: I was concerned when they wrote this letter they said safety to the children and I was that is the reason I parked over in your area because I was trying to figure out Meridian Planning & Z009 Commission • August 12, 1997 Page 13 what kind of traffic system do you have because t is our aoeop a. situation and I couldn't see where you would have anybody speeding through y Lofton: There is nobody that speeds I think we have a c and tple heeco neer but Imean g in the really don't know. I don't see a lot of kids except for street or anything like that. I really don't, my kids don't play in the street, so I don't know the problem with the children. It is a 20 speed limit zone. I don't know and most people that are going to be coming to pick up their children are going to be, they are parents of children so the safety of other children I would think be in (first'nd too. I thing I think oow f as a as a parent when I am driving through a neighborhood that is the parent is the safety of children that are in the street or by the street. MacCoy: Do you have a watch system in your neighborhood to take care of children? Lofton: Not that I am aware of no. MacCoy: Because they mention in this letter to do with strangers in your area and that is a valid concern I think. Lofton: Not that I know we don't, if we did I would probably be on it. Borup: Maybe just a comment that I think was alluded to that you understood that no matter which action either way the City takes it has no bearing on your subdivision covenants. That would be separate. Lofton: I know I would have to go through Dan Wood. Borup: That is something the City does not have any jurisdiction over either way. Lofton: I know 1 have to go through Dan. Johnson: When you say you have to go through Dan is your subdivision not built out is he still have the (inaudible) Dan doesn't have anything to association?o with it if it s in the hands of the Homeowners Association, do you have a homeowners Lofton: No we don't, we don't have, we don't pay monthly or anything. Johnson: I don't mean that but do you have a homeowners association, once the development a subdivision is built out and it becomes the and the developer backs'Iity out at hat of the homeowners association to enforce the coven ants point. Lofton: I think he is part of that homeowners association because when I I talked have to him he said that he would be the one that answers ail of thecomplaints. Meridian Planning & ZC*g Commission August 12, 1997 Page 14 personally gotten anything in the mail saying the people that are the head -of it or anything. 0 your homeowners association these are Johnson: But you have a copy of your covenants right? Lofton: Yes I do Johnson: Does it make reference to a homeowners association in your covenants? Lofton: Probably, I haven't looked at it for that particular reason. Johnson: Does anyone else have any questions of the applicant? Fitzgerald: I have just a couple, do you have any open water on your property such as ditches or swimming pools? Lofton: No I do not Fitzgerald: And. just so the record is clear you have three children or your own Lofton: Two Fitzgerald: Two and then you will have six additional children? Lofton: Three to six depending on the day yes. Fitzgerald: Thank you Johnson: Thank you very much we may ask Yothis ato pplication? l Is there any further that would like to address the Commission on pPcat on discussion among the Commissioners, if not I will close the public hearing. Borup: Just a little concern that the applicant has had a chance o see f the�e es any comment she ad staff -comments. And is there a way to give her time to do that tonight may have pertaining to that? Is it that critical? Johnson: It is a matter of interpretation how critical something is. I imagine they wrote those for the reason. Borup: I think the life safety things have already been addressed. Johnson: You can incorporate those comments tf Theresare�atlo�of motion is contingent upon acceptance of staff recommendations ways that you can handle that. Meridian Planning & Z009 Commission August 12, 1997 Page 15 Borup: Well the only question I had on staff comments was number five. Johnson: Why don't you ask the applicant to come up. Borup: That is what I was wondering, if there a way to maybe give staff comments that r time to read that first or have you had a chance? Was there any question you had o you are unsure of what they want? Lofton: Health and Welfare send you out a piece of paper saying everything you have to do to qualify for a child care license. A lot of them are the same requirements so I am familiar with most of them. Borup: That is all I had then Mr. Chairman. Johnson: At this time I will close the public hearing, this would require findings of fact being prepared. Borup: Mr. Chairman I move we have the City Attomey prepare findings of fact and conclusions of law on this application. MacCoy: Second Johnson: it is moved and seconded we have the City Attorney prepare findings of fact and conclusions of law on item #7, all those in favor? Opposed?

TYIA LOFTON p. Group child care homes are defined as a child care facility which provides care for six to 12 children throughout the day. This includes the provider's own children. 9. The Applicant testified substantially as follows at the public hearing. She proposes to establish a preschool for a maximum of eight children. One part of her application provides that she desires to have eight to ten children; however, she has two children of her own and she does not want more than eight children in the home. She desires three children on a full time basis and two children on a part time basis. The day care will be a preschool type. She has a large family room which she plans to use. She plans to use only the bottom part of the house; the top part of the house will not be used. Her proposed hours are from 5:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. 10. In response to questions of Commissioner Borup, the Applicant testified substantially as follows. She intends to have three children on a full time basis and three on a part time basis. She will be the only person working at the day care; there will be no employees. The ages of the children will be from infant to five years. 11. In response to questions from Chairman Johnson, the Applicant testified substantially as follows. She has not read the recommendations of City staff. She does not have the City staff's comments dated August 1, 1997. With regard to item number 13 of City staff's comments, her proposed hours are from 5:30 a.m. to 6:00 P.M. FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page 5. TYIA LOFTON 12. In response to further questions of Commissioner Borup, the Applicant testified substantially as follows. She has previously worked at a child care facility in Meridian, Idaho. Her experience has not been that children arrive at 5:30 a.m. ; however, she has a friend and a couple other parents are interested in having such hour available to them. 13. In response to questions of Commissioner MacCoy, the Applicant testified substantially as follows. There does not exist any open water such as swimming pools or ditches on the property. There exists a six feet high fence around the property, which has lockable gates on it. The home is two stories. She intends to place a locked gate at the bottom of the stairway to block and secure the upstairs of the house. The upstairs will not be used for the day care. She does not plan to take care of handicapped children; she probably does not have the training to care for such children. The house has a three car garage with a driveway which provides sufficient area for three cars. She has spoken with most of her neighbors, and those which she has spoken are in favor of her proposal. The neighbors have not raised any problems or objections to her proposal. The subdivision in which the property is located has a homeowners, association. The document which governs the use of the property [the covenants, conditions and restrictions] address a business within a residence; however, she has spoken with the developer who does not believe a problem will exist if no person complains. She has not received a written document from the developer authorizing such proposed use of the FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page 6. TYIA LOFTON property, but she certainly could obtain such document from the developer. There does not.exist much vehicle traffic in the area in which the property is located. The vehicle traffic is typical for a neighborhood, no major traffic. 14. In response to further questions of Chairman Johnson, the Applicant testified substantially as follows. She has not received a copy of a letter written to the City of Meridian by Mike and Marie Levers. She believes Mike and Marie Levers live down the street from the property. 15. Mike and Maria Levers submitted an undated letter to the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council of Meridian, which letter is incorporated herein as if set forth in full. This letter provides in part: Please accept this letter as our opposition to a Day Care starting in our neighborhood for the following reasons. 1. Please see attached copy of our covenances (sic) clearly stating no business to be operated in the residences. We like this, as the neighborhood we lived in previously had Day Cares in homes and they negatively effected the residents and the property values, not to mention the quality of life. 2. The Lofton's knew the covenances (sic) in effect when they moved into our neighborhood. They should have looked elsewhere for housing that would accommodate a home business. 3. Eight to ten children causes the potential to add approx. (sic) 20 more trips through our neighborhood than we now experience. (10 to drop off child and 10 to pick up). 4. 5:30 a.m. is too early for this daughter much enlaas traffic and 6:00 p.m. is when myplays outside with many other children. Plus this would bring strangers known only to the Lofton's into our neighborhood. I feel the threat to safety should be considered. FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page 7. TYIA LOFTON t is 5. Our street is off the not a (sic) forr (sic) 1 g this added traffic would be very noticeable. We strongly oppose this Business iour restate: neighborhood for the above mentioned reasons 1. We want to protect our property values and quality of life. 2. Added traffic & noise 3. Too early of opperating (sic) hours 4. Strangers in our neighborhood regularly 5. Safety to our children 16. With regard to this letter from Mike and Maria Levers, the Applicant testified substantially as follows. Mike and Maria Levers have not contacted her and she has not contacted them. The developer told her that they had contacted him; however, to her knowledge, they did not express any opposition to him at that time concerning her proposed day care. She believes they live six houses from her on the corner. She knows they are not an immediate neighbor, because she has spoken with all her immediate neighbors. 17. In response to further questions of Commissioner MacCoy, the Applicant testified substantially as follows. When she speaks of immediate neighbors, she means those neighbors who live next to and two houses from her on the same street and four houses adjacent and across the street from the property. With regard to traffic and the speed of automobiles, she has not observed any'speeding through the neighborhood. The speed limit is 20 mile per hour. She believes the parents using the day care would be cautious and careful given they have children. As a parent herself, she is mindful of children when she is driving through neighborhoods. She FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page S. TYIA LOFTON is not aware of a neighborhood watch system for children in her neighborhood. 18.

The City of Meridian has the authority to take judicial notice of its own ordinances and proceedings, other governmental statutes and ordinances, and of actual conditions existing within the City and state of Idaho. 4.

Section 11-2-418 D states as follows: In approving any Conditional Use, the Commission and Council may prescribe appropriate conditions, bonds, and safeguards in conformity with this Ordinance. Violations of such conditions, bonds or safeguards, when made a part of the terms under which the Conditional Use is granted, FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page 10. TYIA LOFTON shall be deemed a violation of the Ordinance and grounds to revoke the Conditional Use. The Commission and Council may prescribe a set time period for which a Conditional Use may be in existence. 6. The City has judged this application for a conditional use upon the basis of guidelines contained in Section 11-2-418 of the Revised and Compiled Ordinances of the City of Meridian and upon the basis of the Local Planning Act of 1975, Title 67 Chapter 65, Idaho Code, the Comprehensive Plan of the City of Meridian, and the record submitted to it and the things of which it may take judicial notice. 7. Section 11-2-418 C of the Zoning and Development Ordinance of the City of Meridian sets forth the standards under which the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council shall review applications for Conditional Use Permits. Upon a review of those requirements and a review of the facts presented and the conditions of the area and assuming that the above conditions or similar ones thereto would be attached to the conditional use, the Planning and Zoning Commission concludes as follows: a. The proposed use, would in fact, constitute a conditional use and a conditional use permit would be required by ordinance; b. The proposed use would be harmonious with and, in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan, but the Zoning Ordinance requires a conditional use permit to allow the use; C. The proposed use is to be designed and operated to be harmonious in appearance with the character of the general vicinity. If the conditions set forth herein are complied with the use should be operated and maintained to be harmonious with the intended character of the general vicinity and should not change the essential character of the area; FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page 11. TYIA LOFTON d. The proposed use would not be hazardous nor should it be disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses if the conditions are met; that traffic may increase, but due to configuration of the driveway and off-street parking it should not be a problem; e. The property has sewer and water service already connected, but the Applicant may have to pay additional fees for the use; f. The proposed use would not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public facilities and services and the proposed use would not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community; g. If the conditions are met, the proposed use should not involve a use, activity, process, material, equipment or conditions of operation that would be detrimental to person, property or the general welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors; h. Sufficient parking for the proposed use will be required to meet the requirements of the City ordinance; and i. The proposed use will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic feature of major importance. 8. As conditions may be placed upon the granting of a conditional use permit to minimize adverse impact on other development, it is recommended by the Planning and Zoning Commission that the following conditions to the grant of the conditional use be required, to wit: a. The children, if outside, shall be maintained in a fenced area, as required below; b. There shall be fencing, gates and locks for the outside play area such that no children can leave the property without an adult unlocking and opening the gate to let the child or children out of the play area; no children shall be allowed outside of the play area or the home without an adult being present; the fence shall be maintained in good repair and the children, when outside, shall stay in the fenced area and the children shall not FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page 12.
