3. Notarized Zoning Request attached.
4. Legal Description attached.
The parcels are currently used for agricultural purposes and have no structures.
6. The proposed preliminary plat consists of 53 single family residential lots and 7 common
lots.
The properties are currently zoned RT (Rural Transition) and are under jurisdiction of
Ada County.
The proposed zoning is R-4 (low density residential) with lots in excess of 8,000 square
feet.
9. The parcels adjoin the approved preliminary plat of Thousand Springs Subdivision on the
north and west. Public Services (sewer, water, hydrants, public streets and pressure
irrigation) will be extended to the subject property. By integrating this property into the
Thousand Springs development, consistent improvements and amenities can be provided
and shared by lot owners.
The R-4 zoning designation is consistent with other developments in the area (Thousand
Springs Subdivision, Sherbrooke Hollows, Sherbrooke Village and Los Alamitos). Lot
sizes range from 9,199 SF to 18,824 SF which provides a wide variety of parcel and
home sizes.
10. Development of the subject property at urban densities is superior to the previously
proposed preliminary plat with five acre lots. Re -development of rural residential lots to
urban densities is difficult and creates design limitations.
9 81007\Narrative-app
The development is compatible with adjacent residential uses. The design provides for
larger lots next to the existing one acre lots along the south boundary. Those lots range
from 12,527 SF to 18,824 SF.
11. The R-4 designation is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan designation of Mixed
Residential Development. The proposed density of 2.728 is a low density.
12. Map attached.
13. 300 Scale vicinity maps attached.
14. Mailing list within 300 feet attached.
15. Fee: (21.5418 acres) 22 x $15.00 = $330.00 + $400.00 = $730.00.
13 Notices x $1.67 = $21.71 x 2 = $43.42
$730.00 + $43.42 = $773.42
16. Signed affidavit on posting attached.
17. Signed affidavit on application verification attached.

the conditional use permit for Midvalley Business Park? Hearing none, I'll entertain a

Corrie: Mr. Clerk, has that one been signed by the Thousand Springs Village
Subdivision?
Berg: Mr. Mayor, I do not have a signed copy of the development agreement by the
applicant.
Corrie: Mr. Gigray, any comments about this?
Gigray: Mr. Mayor and members of the Council, as you recall my advice on these
matters would be that you would withhold any action on passage of the ordinance until
Meridian City Council
March 16, 1999
Page 13
you get a signed development agreement because a condition of the annexation and
the zoning designation is the signing of the development agreement and I believe we
have prepared an ordinance for your consideration on this annexation and zoning
designation but I wouldn't recommend you pass that until you have a signed
development agreement.
Bentley: Mr. Mayor I would move we table items 8 and 9 for Thousand Springs
Development pending the signature of the development agreement.

involves an annexation and zoning ordinance in addition to a development agreement
and I would have to inquire as to the status of the development agreement.
Corrie: Mr. Clerk.

Berg: Mr. Mayor and members of the Council I do not have a signed development

Gigray: Mr. Mayor and members of the Council, I spoke with members of the Clerk's

designated in the development agreement as to why they were included. Those are the
persons that were listed as the property owners according to the files and records that I
have. There's some indication that maybe one of them is no longer alive or whatever.
That may pose some proof of transfer of ownership or whatever, and I assume they are
in the process of trying to determine who the property owners are at this point. I did go
to Alliance Title to try to see if there was any new information, didn't find any, so I
believe the development agreement has been prepared properly at this point, but we'll
try to work with the developer to get this straightened out before the next council
meeting. If this has not been signed, and I would recommend that you not pass an

Corrie: Is this one not signed either? Okay, I think there was also a legal that had to
come in on that one. Mr. Rountree?
Rountree: If we can't identify that this development agreement has been signed, Mr.
Mayor I would move that we table items 6 and 7 until April 20tH
Bird: Second.
Corrie: Okay. Motion is made that we table item number six and seven which is also
the annexation and zoning until 4/20/99. Any further discussion? Hearing none, all
those in favor of the motion say aye.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
Rountree: Mr. Mayor just a point of reference I think to the Council and myself is what's
the difficulty in getting these signed? Are the developers and owners not liking the
development agreements or are they just not getting them back to us or what's the
situation?
Stiles: We have changed the way we got the signatures on these development
agreements. They are going through the City Clerk's office. I believe he sends them
out. Maybe Will could address it more if he's getting any response once they're sent
out. I don't exactly know what the process is any more on it.
Berg: Mr. Mayor and members of the Council I was under the impression that the City
Attorney was in correspondence with the developer on these new development
agreements since the development agreements themselves come out of the City
Attorney's office. Before we had the developer preparing the development agreement
and we were checking them off the template as to the specific items. When we get
them there is a copy sent to the developer but any correspondence with their
disagreement to the development agreement goes to either city attorney or to the
Planning and Zoning Department because those are the issues that attach Findings of
Fact and Conclusions of Law and our conditions on that development agreement we
usually don't have any response to them or ways of changing that or ways of explaining

PAGE 22
Bentley: Mr. Mayor, I move we approve the preliminary plat subject to staff conditions
Corrie: Do I hear a second?
Anderson: Second.
Corrie: Motion made by Mr. Bentley second by Mr. Anderson to accept the preliminary
plat for Seabury Subdivision by West Pine Development subject to conditions of staff
comments. Any further discussion?
Rountree: Mr. Mayor I would request if Councilman Bentley would consider a condition
on that approval that the developer investigate and/or resolve the irrigation issue both
downstream and through this parcel and they assist in identifying what problems may
be upstream to get the irrigation water to this property. What I don't think we want nor
do I think they want is another Don Bryant situation where on a wet year your 4-plexes
are in a foot of water that nobody knows where it came from or where it's going to go to
and I think it's really important that we pay attention to this irrigation issue.
Bentley: I would agree to that.
Corrie: Okay. Does the second agree to it?
Anderson: Second agrees to it.
Corrie: Mr. Gigray.
Gigray: Mr. Mayor I would understand as we would prepare an order of conditional
approval of the preliminary plat that the same conditions that were enunciated in the
previous action in item seven we would make sure that this order was consistent with
those because there are a lot of the same conditions apply in both instances with your
permission.
Bentley: Yes, that was my intent.
Corrie: Amended motion by Mr. Bentley and second approval by Mr. Anderson. Any
further discussion? Hearing none, all those in favor of the amended motion say aye.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.

ACRES FOR PROPOSED THOUSAND SPRINGS VILLAGE BY MARTIN
MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL
FEBRUARY 16, 1999
PAGE 23
DEVELOPMENT INC.—NORTH OF E. VICTORY ROAD, WEST OF S. EAGLE
ROAD:
Corrie: At this time I will open the public hearing and invite the staff to comment
Stiles: Mr. Mayor and Council I brought the wrong file, so I'm not sure what date our
comments were. This is a project that's about a quarter mile north of Victory on Eagle
Road. The owner of it was Mr. Gordon Harris if you might remember, he's tried several
times to develop this property and now has the opportunity to have it developed. I don't
believe we had any issues outstanding on this project. The Public Works Department is
requiring a booster station to be built as part of this development to increase the flows in
the pressures in that area. And they have agreed to do that. It's a fairly straight forward
project. Ada County Highway District has requested that a stub be provided into the
existing home which Mr. Harris resides so that possible future development may take
place on that remaining parcel. They are going to continue their 50 foot wide right-of-
way and we did have initial comments saying that the 57 foot right-of-way would be
preferred but we have since agreed that we would prefer to have the 4 foot planting strip
separating the sidewalk from the roadway rather than insist on the 57 foot right-of-way.
Corrie: Is there anyone from the public who would like to issue testimony in favor of this
item number 9 request for annexation of Thousand Springs Village.
BECKY BOWCUTT BRIGGS ENGINEERING 1800 W. OVERLAND, BOISE
Bowcutt: The project we bring before you is an annexation on 21.5418 acres. I'd like to
mention for the record that it does include Mr. Harris' home parcel which is about two
and a half acres. In our preliminary discussions with staff prior to submittal they thought
it would be wise to include that in the annexation so we didn't end up with an enclave at
a later date where the city had to go and then force them to annex. However within the
preliminary plat that parcel is not included. It's a separate parcel under the Assessor's
records and therefore it is a legal parcel. You probably saw a five acre subdivision
come in under county referral on this property a year or so ago. After the Thousand
Springs development was approved then this was purchased by a relative of Mr.
Goldsmith's and they decided to incorporate it into the development. As you recall we
provided two stub streets to this property. One here and here. We are extending those
in and making that connection. We also took this cul-de-sac and brought a stub street
at this location. However when we started to lay this development out, it became
obvious that these two stub street connections were too close. to make that intersection
work. Therefore we requested the highway district and the city discontinue this street
connection down here and instead we included a micropath connection. The highway
district did support that and so did your staff. One thing that did is this would have been
a really long street that somebody could get a pretty high excessive speeds on and it
just doesn't make a lot of sense because we've got good interconnection with these two
MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL
FEBRUARY 16, 1999
PAGE 24
stub streets here. This is the Bell property. We provided a stub street to that parcel so
that it may redevelop in the future. We'll be extending the sewer and water through the
Thousand Springs development into the Village. All of these lots exceed 8,000 square
feet. A majority of them run between 9200 and 10,000 square feet on the average. We
provided 40 feet of landscaping on Eagle Road which is consistent with Thousand
Spring. We have asked Mr. Harris if he will go ahead and dedicate additional right-of-
way so we can take our sidewalk along the frontage and have a continuous section of
sidewalk without a break. He did agree to sell that to the highway district and we did
agree that the highway district to construct that sidewalk so we won't have a break in
the sidewalk. We'll tie all that landscaping in as far as similar theme. The development
has the McDonald Lateral that runs, it comes across like this and then it dips down,
terminates here, goes into a pipe and overflows into the Ridenbaugh Canal. We will be
required to pipe this section of the McDonald lateral. I did submit plans to Boise Project
Board of Control and ask for information from them. They have asked for a 24 inch
pipe. They've asked for us to maintain their access road and to coordinate with the
neighbors because there are three property owners that adjoins us that have their
pumps in that lateral at this time. We have sent a survey crew to locate their pumps.
We'll be constructing boxes that's acceptable to them as far as location and size along
that McDonald Lateral so that they will have shared access to their water. The Planning
and Zoning Commission asked us to at one time we showed this as just an easement.
The Planning and Zoning Commission asked us to put that in a separate lot that was
attached to this common lot here. We did modify our preliminary plat to do so. That will
protect the lateral. We wont' have any problems with any encroachment from the
neighbors or any disputes in the future. The district said that they'll have to drive back
in here for any maintenance that may take place along that pipe so that roadway will be
maintained. We did have some neighbors that had comments and concerns at the
Planning and Zoning Commission. We asked the commission to please approve us and
give us the opportunity to meet with those residents to come up with some solutions to
their concerns. The Planning and Zoning Commission did allow us that privilege. We
met with Bonnie Glick who owns the property here. Let me flip this here. She owns the
property right here. You can see here house sits real far back. This is Bernetta
Hastings. She sold this little portion here to Martin Development. We did not meet with
her, but we met with Rex Young who lives here and he had concerns. One Rex wanted
to see the roadway maintained or left in place for that access to the ditch. We have
agreed to that. We agreed that we will coordinate the location of that pipe, their boxes.
Secondly Bonnie Glick asked because her house sits so far back that 17 and lot 16 be
designated as a single story lots. The developer has agreed to that in the development
agreement that was submitted to your staff. I think Mr. Gigray has a copy of it. These
two lots are designated as single story lots. We went back there observed her house.
She does have a nice view. She does not have any trees or obstructions that gives
here a view and that would just kind of help her view out. Rex's one problem was the
fact that his property is about six feet higher than our parcel and when we install a
perimeter fencing, that that fence would be lower than his property. So we walked out
MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL
FEBRUARY 16, 1999
PAGE 25
there in the rear and what we're going to do is we'll feather out from the access road
we'll go ahead an add some fill and feather it out to the north so the fence will sit on the
far side of the access roadway for the McDonald Lateral. So the fence will sit higher
and then the lot will be down and that was one of the compromises that we came up
with. Mr. Young's property the rear of his, he abuts us just right from here over. He has
an extensive forest in his rear yard that I believe gives him his privacy, but this fence will
add to it, so as far as his view I told him I don't think you can see through those trees
because I couldn't see an inch of your house on the other side. Mrs. Glick I also want to
put on the record will be matching the fence along here in Thousand Springs 1 across
the back. It will be some type of a capped six foot wood type fence. She did not want
dog eared with some type of a white wash on it so it doesn't discolor as bad, so I think
we've worked out the majority of our problems. This is a good project. There's
approximately 53 buildable lots. Our density is about 2.7 dwellings per acre. The
developable part of the project is approximately 19.4 acres. We got a pocket park here.
It's about 25,500 square feet. That's going to be used as storm drainage and a pocket
park. One of the things that we looked at is this is by far the lowest point on the
property. We believe we can get the storm drainage to come to this location. We're
going to try to minimize the amount of depression so that it is a usable grass area, not
just a hole in the ground. We also have the micropath area here that we could —that will
be grass with just a five foot or ten foot excuse me ten foot path according to ACHD
requirements and we're going to attempt it was one of staff's questions. We've got a
ditch that we're piping here that takes some drainage off of some of these other parcels,
and we're going to try to create an overflow there so that our pond does not have to be
so deep that it can just be a mild depression. When we get into design we'll get working
on that and see what we can do. One of the prime things that we've been working on is
try to make these usable areas that they function storm drainage but yet they're usable
and aesthetically pleasing. One thing I do want on the record, I've got this little sliver
here as you can see this particular lot five was met your standards for frontage
exceeded your 8,000 square feet. However it was quite narrow and deep. I want to
add this excess to this particular lot here so this lot 6 shown on the preliminary plat
would go with this lot within Thousand Springs No. Phase 3 so I do want that on the
record just to make it bigger because it's excess and they'll just have to do a quitclaim
deed for that small portion. Do you have any questions?
Rountree: Are you still proposing the same type of use for the lot in the northeast
corner on Eagle?
Bowcutt: Where? Up there?
Rountree: Yeah. Thousand Springs.
Bowcutt: That's the fire station lot. That's the well lot. Yes, sir. That's in phase in one
of Thousand Springs. These are the phase lines. Phase one, two, three is coming
MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL
FEBRUARY 16, 1999
PAGE 26
before you and four will be designed by the end of the month. And we will — oh I also
want to go on the record that we'll be constructing a pressure booster station here. This
project in conjunction with the developer of Thousand Springs to boost that pressure
because this property sits at a higher elevation and your existing well is over on Locust
Grove. Staff and our engineering team agreed that phase two of Thousand Springs
would be the appropriate time to bring that on line. I'm currently waiting on your staff to
provide me with a detail because no one has ever built one so we don't know what it
looks like. Or what it costs yet either. It may not be a real good idea.
Corrie: Any other questions of Becky?
Bowcutt: Oh, please incorporate my testimony into item 10.
Corrie: It will be done. Anyone else from the public who would like to issue testimony in
favor of this annexation and zoning. Hearing none, anybody who would like to enter

3.14 S. Lava Way, to the north of this proposed project, was stubbed to this
property for future extension. The applicant is proposing to leave S. Lava
Way as a cul de sac and provide a pedestrian walkway to provide inter -
neighborhood connection. Because of the proposed layout, staff supports
the pedestrian walkway. The pedestrian walkway needs to be paved and
landscaped in accordance with City Ordinance.

RE: Application of Martin Development, Inc. for annexation and
zoning and preliminary plat approval of approximately 21.54
acres of land for Thousand Springs Village.
I may not be able to attend the City Council meeting on Tuesday, Feb. 16, so
ask that this letter be submitted as my testimony regarding this application.
Our biggest concern regarding this development continues to be lack of
interest by the city of Meridian to consider the issue of transitional densities
when developing out in these rural residential areas. Those of us who abut
this development have 2.2 - 5 acre lots. It is quite abrupt and not
"transitional" to abut our properties with R4 development. It will lessen the
rural appeal of our properties and change our lifestyles. We have asked the
Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council to consider these
issues numerous times, to no avail. We know we cannot stop the
development of these areas. We would ask that you at least consider a lower
density directly behind our larger acreages. Instead of looking at field and
mountains, we will now be viewing the rooftops of 53 houses.
We have met with the developer's representative regarding the issue of our
view being blocked by the houses built directly behind us in lots 16 & 17 of
Block 3. Ms. Bowcutt assures us that she has written into the development
plan that the houses built on these two lots will be single story houses.
Additionally, Ms. Bowcutt indicates that we will be notified of the proposal
made for the piping of the McDonald Lateral (our source of irrigation water)
and the specifics regarding the boxes our pumps will be sunk into before any
final decision is made. Our concern is that our irrigation source not be
jeopardized in any way and that we not incur costs to adjust the means of
delivery.
Again, we have a concern that this development will have an impact on our
domestic water supply, either by contamination or by dropping water levels.
Ms. Bowcutt indicated that the city sewer and water is considering placing
stubs going to our properties to insure that we would have an option to go on
city water/sewer if the need arises. I think this would be a good option to
give us given the unknown issues regarding how this will affect our water
supply. We have raised the question about if this will make our water
supply vulnerable many times, and have never received an answer from
anyone at P&Z or the City Council to assure us our supply won't be affected.
I think this is especially pertinent if the domestic wells on any of these
abutting development properties (Sally Martin's - Thousand Springs
Subdivision) will be used in the pressurized irrigation of the development.
Another concern is the traffic on Victory Road. It is already hard to get out
of our lane onto Victory Rd. in the morning during rush hour. With almost
400 new homes going in this mile between Locust Grove and Eagle Rd., we
worry that we will not be able to access the street in front of our house.
In spite of the developer's consideration of most of our concerns regarding
this development, we remain fundamentally opposed to this kind of high
density development (with no parks) next to our rural residential properties.
We hope you will consider our concerns and address them accordingly.

MacCoy: Staff, what do you have to say about this one?
Rossman: Mr. Chairman, you can if it would be easier, if you thought it would be
easier for the commission to consolidate 5 & 6 since they are the same applicant
if you like or you can keep them separate.
MacCoy: Are you going to allow us to do that?
Rossman: I will allow you to do that if you would like.
MacCoy: Our past attorney has took me to task for that. Okay we are allowed to
do it, I'll take your word for it. So we will take testimony on both of them and we
will decide separately on each issue. Staff on 5 & 6?

Stiles: Chairman MacCoy and commissioners, we have reviewed the
application. You have our comments that are dated January 7, 1999. We have
received a response from the applicant, you should have that in your packets.
We do request some additional information which the applicant has indicated
they will submit. This property is currently located in what is designated as a
mixed residential area. As a planning issue, I think we should be looking at
encouraging higher densities along these corridors so that we can support public
transit at a later date. They do have one out parcel that they are including with
the annexation. They are not including as part of the plat. We would like the
street improvements to be included through that parcel, which I believe Ada
County Highway District has also requested as with Thousand Springs
Subdivision they are proposing 50 foot wide right-of-way that would include a four
foot planting strip, staff could support that configuration provided that they have
the 22 foot setback from the back sidewalk and that the landscaping and
irrigation is constructed with the subdivision and is not left up to the individual lot
owners.
MacCoy: Anything else? Okay.
Freckleton: Mr. Chairman, member of the commission, from the public works
standpoint, the only real biggie item that we see is this area, when you get closer
to the intersection of Victory and Eagle it's getting higher in elevation. Our water
model is indicating that we are going to be running into some pressure problems.
I did make a comment in our staff report regarding the need for a booster station.
Applicant has indicated that they have discussed it with their developer, so I just
bring that to light.
MacCoy: Good I'm glad that you did. Thank you. All right, it's a public hearing
I'm going to open the thing—here she comes all ready to go. You are busy
tonight.
BECKY BOWCUTT, BRIGGS ENGINEERING, 1800 W. OVERLAND, BOISE, ID.
Bowcutt: I'm representing the applicant in this matter. The project before you
this evening is an annexation request with a rezone to an R-4 designation and a
preliminary plat, which consists of 53 buildable lots and seven common lots. As
Shari indicated you may ask why the annexation is for 21.54 acres, however the
plat itself is 19.42 and that's because we included Mr. Harris's house parcel in
our annexation. In our discussion with staff they indicated that it's difficult in the
future to go back and annex these little enclaves where a landowner has retained
their home on say a 2.5 acre 2 acre parcel. So it simplifies things and makes it
easier for the city if we just include it. However, the landowner did not want to be
part of the subdivision itself and he has a legal parcel with his house and then he
had the adjoining acreage. This particular parcel adjoins Thousand Springs, this
is Eagle Road and Victory right here. As you recall Thousand Springs
Subdivision came through 8-9-10 months ago, time flies. I can't remember.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 40
MacCoy: That's about right.
Bowcutt: This particular subdivision had I believe 328 buildable lots, the
requested zone on that is R-4 which is consistent with what we are proposing
here. There were two stub streets provided within the Thousand Springs
Subdivision here that we are making connection to within the Thousand Springs
Village. This village parcel is being developed within the same family. Different
family member, but related as the original Thousand Springs, that's why it carries
a similar name. We had, I want to explain this one issue here, originally we had
proposed this street laid right against this property line for extension of that street
south into this parcel. In designing this development it occurred to me quite early
that I had put this stub street into the wrong place. It was too close to this stub
street and it caused intersection problems when I tried to extend it on through. It
should have been located either through here, or like in this area here. Ada
County Highway District originally thought it should go on through, but after
reviewing it and looking at the straight street it would create and the speed that
could—that one could reach as they went that 1800 feet, or 1600 feet, whatever
it is, they decided against it. So what we are proposing is a micro path
connection here so we would have pedestrian and bicycle connections up there.
These plans for this cul-de-sac and that to the north has just been submitted for
staff's review and City Council review on the final plat and it reflects this cul-de-
sac, not abutting the parcel, but—and a micro path standing out. Staff in their
review concurred with that. We do have an approach to Eagle Road and we
provided one stub street here. There is a large parcel here that is undeveloped.
Larger than the 2-3 acres that you find here. So they will have an opportunity to
link into us. The fact that they are smaller—or that this parcel is smaller. I kind
of envision a street coming in and then teeing. They could probably with the
limited volume of traffic, probably get away with coming right out through us, as
was stated in the previous discussions trying to limit the number of approaches to
Eagle Road, that would be an opportunity there. We've got a pocket park here
that is also the lowest point of the property in that northwest corner. Our intent is
to take our storm drainage there. I've made that lot a pretty good size so that it
will be a soft swill. There is also a ditch that is being piped up through that area,
so we would have an overflow pipe to take some of that water away, which also
gives us additional capacity and we don't have to put the pond so deep. That
acreage on the (Inaudible) is about 25,000 square feet. 25.58 something so it's a
little over a half acre and the micro path, like I said will run right along the
perimeter. We want it to function as a pocket park. In here we've continued the
landscaping, there is landscaping right here next to Mrs. Glick's property. We've
continued that landscaping here and the lots begin along this perimeter. One of
the things that I looked at when we laid this out, when we put the cul-de-sac's in
our lots get a little bit bigger. These lots here are 18,824 – 17,273 – I've got a
16,900 and then we've got one that is 12,527 and 13,235. So they are deeper
lots, they are bigger lots. One of the reasons we've got the McDonald Lateral
that comes in and just terminates right here at us. There is a pipe that comes
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 41
over and it just dumps into the Ridenbaugh Canal, that's the end of the line. We
propose to pipe the McDonald Lateral. Boise Project Border Control states it will
probably take a 24 inch pipe. The existing easement is 36 feet. I just found that
out today. They had to research it. From their initial review they believe they will
want some type of a small access road over the pipe for future maintenance.
The depth on that lot is like 152, this dimension is 245, I've got a 138. I've also
got a little additional depth there, so we may push that up a little bit to give us a
little more room there. They will not allow berming, nor will they allow fencing to
encroach within their easement. That's according to Phil Komigas (sic) with the
Boise Project Border Control. The lots in here are consistent with the sizes we
have in Thousand Springs #1. As you can see a lot of these lots are 10,000, we
have a bunch that are, all these right through here are around 15,000, these are
14,000, 1 think my smallest lot is like 9,280 and that's right up here. Those are
my smallest lots and they are 80 X 116. We've provided real nice depths, so
these homes will have real nice back yards. We feel that it is consistent with
what has been developed in this area. It's linking in with the Thousand Springs,
sewer and water will be extended through the site, we provided evidence that it
can, be sewered. I have had discussions with Bruce on the sewer station for the
water, it's understood that it will be the responsibility of Thousand Springs
Development to put that booster in. We are coordinating with staff on how that
is going to be done and in the first phase we will be making some provisions for
the connection and then the booster station will be built when the city staff
indicates it's necessary. I have talked to one of the neighbors, Rex Young. He
had some questions about transitional lot sizes, fencing, berming, type of
fencing. Along this area here, Mrs. Glick wanted like some berming six foot
fence with kind of a cap so we didn't end up with a dog earred. This particular
developer said he was willing to match that and go ahead and take that fence
right through here, so it will be consistent with what is being done right here. As
far as berming along this particular area right here. I kind of have some concerns
about berming that I passed on to Mr. Young. The berm and you put the fence—
if the berm goes down to lets say a property line and then the fence is on top,
who maintains the backside of the berm. That is one of the problems that we
have. The other issue is since the irrigation district won't allow us to encroach
with the berm over the pipe, where would a berm be placed? Berms do cause us
some difficulty and I'm not convinced that they make a real good screen or that
they are a necessity when you are talking residential with residential. When I
showed Mr. Young that the lot sizes that we have made an attempt to make
deeper larger lots adjoining his property. We put that little cul-de-sac there.
We've only got really these three lots that adjoin Mrs. Glick, Mrs. Hastings, and
Mr. Young, his property comes out here, he abuts I think about at this point. So
the impact I think is not that great. It will be a good development, will benefit this
area. We've also, I want to make note of this, we stub to this out parcel. The
highway district asked us to do that. After drafting their staff report they called
and said they wanted public street access to the out parcel, so I moved that
street over. The number of lots remain the same. So I just want to note that for
the record. You can see I had a (Inaudible) we looked at taking a stub street

BOB BELL, 994 N. CAUCUS WAY, MERIDIAN, ID.
Bell: I own the piece of property that is just to the south of this development. I
don't completely understand the process of how this gets approved and so forth,
but I wanted to make the commission aware that I will be requesting annexation
and rezone of my property and ask that as they are making decisions on this,
which is ahead of mine, that they keep this in mind. Things like sewer and water
and drainage and this kind of thing. I don't know whether I would get involved
normally or not, but it's a request of the commission.
MacCoy: Well, maybe to ease your mind, you have already heard particularly
Mr. Borup will be here, he keeps track of this stuff project to project and we try to

Borup: Just one question, did the stub street that was proposed look like it
worked out for what you have in mind? I don't know that they did much different,
but that's always been a pretty standard thing that there is access provided to
adjoining properties, so that's what they have tried to do here it looks like.
Bell: I couldn't see the picture, but the picture I have, the stub street would be
fine.
Borup: I think that stayed the same.
Bell: Yes.
Borup: The only thing that may effect you is the statement that Bruce Freckleton
made on water pressure.

Bell: I'm concerned about both water pressure and sewage and I would really
like to hookup to city services and not redo things as they are laid down.
MacCoy: Any other questions of this gentleman? No, okay thank you very much
sir. Anyone else want to speak in favor of this project? If not, anyone want to
speak on the negative side of this project. Here we go.
REX YOUNG, 2950 E. VICTORY ROAD, MERIDIAN, ID.
Young: I want to speak to the negative aspects of the project. I'm not sure if I'm
in favor or against, it just depends on how things go.
MacCoy: That's okay, you can still speak.
Young: I live immediately to the south of this proposed development. I've been
there for some 28 years and needless to say I'm not happy about subdivisions
going in, but I understand that it's coming and we just as well accept it and try
and make things as palatable as we can possibly can. Having lived there for 28
years there has been a lot of changes. This morning as I walked out to get my
newspaper I walked across Victory Road, got the paper and stood there and
waited while 17 cars went by either coming or going. That is drastically different
than some 28 years ago.
MacCoy: I'm sure it is.
Young: As far as the project is concerned, I have some concerns and one thing
that I would like to be able to do, I would like to be able to protect my privacy as
far as possible. Living immediately to the south, I have a two acre lot and I've
just am concerned with doing everything that we can so that I can continue to
enjoy if you will some degree of privacy that I have come to enjoy. Some of the
concerns that I have, and I talked with Becky and she was very, very helpful..
There are still some questions that are unanswered. There is talk about possibly
covering the McDonald lateral by putting it in pipe and the rotation manager for
myself and three other property owners for a total of four, three of which are
impacted by this development. My personal opinion, I have no objection if it is
put in a pipe as long as I have access so I can continue to pump...
(END OF TAPE)
Young: ...each one of the property owners has their own pumping station, so
each one would have to be provided those type of opportunities. Another thing
that I'm concerned about and I didn't see anything that indicated that there would
be a well going in on this development, but just for the record, my well failed
during the drought years and I've had an opportunity of putting a new one in and
anytime a subdivision goes in or anything like it, I get concerned about the
underground water table. Where city water and sewer is coming in, I would
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999

assume that that wouldn't be a problem, but it's always something that a person
has to be concerned with.
MacCoy: Can you tell us how deep your new well is?
Young: 170 feet. Before the drought, I was at 64 feet.
MacCoy: Quite costly to go down to 170.
Young: Considerably more costly than it was per foot, when the well was initially
put in. I had a concern about the right-of-way and roadway along the south
portion of the development and Becky told me tonight that the right-of-way
extends 15 feet south of the center line of the ditch and 21 feet to the north and
that the roadway along the McDonald Lateral will remain. I was glad to hear that
and hope that that is certainly the case. A concern that I do have, the Glick's
Property to their west and the Thousand Springs Subdivision, they've got
berming and fencing, that wraps around to the north of the property and that's
where the berming stops. I would like very much to see that berming continue. It
will be a buffer between my property and their property and will provide me some
additional privacy. I would like to see that berm landscaped and maintained and
I would like to see a masonry fence on that berm. I talked with Mrs. Hastings,
she is out of town, not able to attend this hearing and she indicated that she was
going to write a letter. She has some of the same concerns that I do. Hopefully
we can work together with the developers so that we can get what we would like
to have and the concessions that we think we need to have and they will be able
to push on with their subdivision. Do you have any questions?
MacCoy: Okay, thank you. Any questions here?
Borup: I have one for Mr. Young and that's on the berm. You said you would
like a berm along the property line? You didn't explain, where would you like that
located?
Young: Well, it would have to be...
Smith: Could we get that map back up here?
Borup: I've got the plat and I (Inaudible) you are talking along that property, but
are you saying along the McDonald Lateral?
Young: If I understand it correctly...
Bowcutt: Show them where you house is...
Young: My home is right here.

Bowcutt: So you are about what? 130 feet?
Young: From where?
Bowcutt: (Inaudible).
Young: Now this is the lateral along here and there is a 21 foot easement and
would like to see that berm on the other side of that 21 foot easement.
Borup: On the other side?
Young: I don't think the irrigation people will let me put it on the roadway or...
Borup: No, that's what was testified earlier and that's what I was wondering.
Smith: So to the east property line on Lot 14.
Bowcutt: It would be the south property line of Lot 15.
Young: Yeah, the south property line of Lot 15 and would extend over on to the
corner of Lot 14.
Smith: The corner of 15 and 14.
Young: Yeah. I know Mrs. Hastings is interested in the same thing on her
property and their should be a letter on file to that extent.
Borup: We got her letter.
Young: Any other questions?
Smith: And you are asking for some type of masonry fence, as opposed to
wood?
Young: That would be my preference, I saw too many wood fences in
subdivisions that the fences aren't maintained and three years after they go in,
why it's nothing but a mess. With the masonry fence, you certainly wouldn't have
that problem.
Smith: But before you sit down, this would be addressed to Bruce, are these
individuals who Mr. Young mentioned that he coordinates their irrigation
schedule. Are they all going to be able to access this lateral once it's enclosed or
are they going to incur expense and can that water pumping station be sized to
accommodate the previous gentleman's comments about the possibility of him
developing his land? Two questions.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 47
Freckleton: Mr. Chairman, Commissioner Smith, Shari and I were just sitting
here discussing that. I wasn't totally clear on how the water system worked
through there. Is it correct to understand that these pump stations exist now?
Young: Yes.
Freckleton: Okay, typically we require a common lot down through there so
people would have access to those facilities. We could do that.
(Inaudible)
Freckleton: Attach it to the other common lot and run it down the back of those
lot lines. Is that the first part of your question?
Smith: That was the first part of the question.
Young: I'm not sure that I understood what he said.
Smith: You will still have access to your water.
Freckleton: It would be left open from the street coming in you will be able to get
down through there. I would assume that he would still have to have—
(Inaudible)
Freckleton: ...come in the other direction? Okay.
(Inaudible)
Freckleton: But you wouldn't have to go into somebody's back yard to get to
your water.
Young: I certainly hope not.
Freckleton: Yeah. The second part of your question was?
Smith: The booster pump that is going to be required for the water, the domestic
water. Can it be sized so it doesn't have to be redone when the parcel to the
south develops (Inaudible).
Freckleton: It would be our intention to size that booster station to where it would
handle the service area, this area out here.
Smith: Okay.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 48
Freckleton: We do have a well site down near the Ridenbaugh Canal. We don't
intend to drill that well at this point in time. You had asked that question.
Typically our city wells are considerable deeper than what your domestic well is.
We go into the deeper aquifers.
Young: Which if I may, doesn't that sometimes tend to lower the water table on
the shallower aquifers?
Freckleton: That's a good question for a hydro -geologist, not myself. I can't
answer that, don't know.
Smith: Thank you engineer Bruce, that was all of my questions for Mr. Young,
thanks.
MacCoy: Thank you very much. Is anyone—here we go.
JIM ALLEN, 3040 E. VICTORY, MERIDIAN, ID.
Allen: I think these two gentlemen over here are good farmers and they have
taken care of me. I own the property just east of Mr. Young. It has a little V in
the top of it. My biggest concern I guess is with irrigation. I know that I'm going
to be looking at roof lines, hopefully somebody designed some roofs that are nice
to look at. Primary concern, I guess is irrigation because as Mr. Young indicated,
there are seven of us that irrigate out of that lateral, all have different pumping
stations. I keep stock on my place, so I'm concerned about that, that I end up
having an attractive nuisance but also think that it's my right to farm my ground
as I see it. So I would like that recorded.
MacCoy: That's required by state law, anyway. (Inaudible)
Allen: Some of the other neighbors keep stock too. Thank you.
Borup: Mr. Allen I did have a question. The lateral, (Inaudible) I understand
does run from east to west, is that correct? So behind your --
Allen: (Inaudible) east to northwest.
Borup: It appears to me then that the lateral behind your property which should
be—you are pumping out of an open ditch at this time?
Allen: Yes.
Borup: Behind your property. It's my understanding that's going to stay open so
they won't be doing anything that would effect—
Allen: You are going to leave it open?
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 49
Bowcutt: By you, yes.
Borup: Because they don't have any other choice, they don't own or control that
property.
Young: Bob does.
Borup: Right, so he is the one you need to talk to. The other (Inaudible) will all
have access to their pumping stations and access to the ditch and I would
assume if something else comes up along your property it's going to stay the
same.
Young: Okay, great. Thank you.
MacCoy: I think we are on a roll now.
DAVE MARQUART, 3100 E. VICTORY, MERIDIAN, ID.
Marquart: I'm the property just to the east of Jim Allen and I have some
questions that I would like to ask. I don't know whether of the commission or of
staff. I think the first question that I have is concerning your item number 5
annexation. I looked at your map today and there is nothing contiguous to this
property for annexation, unless the map isn't up to date.
Borup: It's hard to keep that up to date.
Freckleton: It's not up to date.
Marquart: Is there a property contiguous to this that is already annexed
officially? Okay good, thank you. That was the first question that I had for that.
The pipe into the later is one that I have here that I had for that and I won't be
affected by that at this time, but if Mr. Bell comes back, I'll be affected by that
later. I would like to address the issue of the lighting standards that were in your
packet, I do amateur astronomy, and it's a beautiful place to do that. I would like
to have in your plans that the lighting not be polluted anymore than possible
upward and that the lighting be addressed in the downward condition, so that we
can still continue to enjoy not only the hobbies that I have in astronomy, but also
my neighbors with the darkness, because it is very nice out there. I would agree
with the berming that was mentioned earlier by Mr. Young and the Glick family. I
think that is very nice. I do have some specific questions that I wonder if you
might be able to help me answer those. Becky, may I use your (Inaudible)? I
could only count six common lots, rather than seven. I don't know where the
seventh one is, but when we looked at it earlier, we could count the 53 lots, but
we couldn't count the seven common, so I don't know where that one is. But if I
could draw your attention to lot #6, Block 5, this little small sliver on the right
hand—on the left hand corner there on the west side. My understanding that
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 50
common lot is going to be used for drainage of water. I don't know how your
Comprehensive Plan addresses drainage of water. Do you have to keep that
water on site or can it flow into somebody else's subdivision? I don't know the
answer to that, because it looks like this lot is—
Freckleton: Mr. Marquart, since you and I talked at the table here, I have talked
with Becky and she has given me some clarification on that, because I was a bit
confused as well. That lot, the map is incorrect, the drainage will not be collected
on that lot 6, the drainage does go on to the northwest corner and is collected in
lot 18, block 1 noted as common lot and drainage area, up in that corner. That
sliver of a lot is simply going to be added to a residential lot, in Thousand Springs
to make it bigger and more buildable. That's just a point of clarification for you,
because I told you wrong earlier.
Marquart: So the lot in the original Thousand Springs needed to be larger and
they sneaked a little out of this property to do it?
Freckleton: Correct.
Marquart: I don't know if that's kosher you guys, but that's what happens. The
other thing is, and I may have to speak with Mr. –1 can't think of his name right
now, our gentleman friend right here.
De Weerd: Harris?
Marquart: It appears that the lot, that this number 6 that is no longer going to be
a part of a drainage system but Block 1, Lot 18 will be, it was mentioned earlier
when I spoke with Bruce that that might be a pipe that was already in existence
and if that pipe already is in existence, I believe that is an irrigation pipe, not a
drainage pipe. I'd need clarification on that. Can we dump drainage water into
an irrigation pipe, that's already live. Will Meridian Irrigation District allow that?
hear a lot of silence over there.
Freckleton: First of all, City of Meridian doesn't have an irrigation district.
Marquart: No, Nampa.
Freckleton: Nampa/Meridian Irrigation District. Becky is this ditch under their
jurisdiction or is it under Boise Project Border control? It's a question that maybe
she could answer better than I.
Bowcutt: The topography of the property is—this is the lowest by far the lowest
point on this parcel. Historically the parcel drains in that direction. As you can
see this ditch, you can see the ditch here existing. Historically if a parcel drains
to a particular facility we are allowed if treated to discharge the pre -development
flow. Meaning the amount of flow that came off the parcel in it's undeveloped
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 51
form. If that particular irrigation district who governs it agrees to it. That is under
state law and that keeps you if you own property next to me, from shutting your
drainage ditch off (Inaudible) my parcel when I irrigate it, the slough goes into
your drainage ditch, it keeps those drainage facilities moving on. That applies to
developable land. What we can't discharge is the post development flow. You
must retain that on site. So there is a differentiation between the two.
Marquart: But it has to be treated before it goes?
Bowcutt: Yes sir. That's why—
Marquart: How do you treat that?
Bowcutt: In this particular one, it's treated with sand and grease traps as the
storm drainage is collected off the streets, that's the facilities you see here, then
it's discharged into that lot being over a half acre, it's all turfed and landscaped
and as the water flows across through it, you get the sedimentation, the
settlement of the impurities that possibly weren't picked up in the sand and
grease traps which ACHD cleans out. We also have subsurface gravel, sand
filters, any nuisance water if there is just a little bit of rain, that's filtered where it
will percolate into the pond. So anything that would overflow, it would have to
reach a certain elevation. It would be like in a 100 year storm, it gives you a
safety factor, those overflows, that's what it does for you. If we have a terrible
storm, there is a safety factor. The cities experience with those (Inaudible)
without any overflows has been bad. Is that not correct Bruce?
Freckleton: That is true, quite true. Way bad.
Marquart: It would've been nice if we had a neighborhood meeting, we could
have solved a lot of these problems earlier. A lot of these questions. Also with
my neighbor who mentioned about the agricultural section on the Idaho Code
224503, that would be on the plat before it's the (Inaudible). The ditches I think
are fine. On your site specific comments on your packet, commissioners if you
would number two, residential use, a variety of housing types and densities was
intended for this area. I would agree with that and I would also like to have you
take a look at the fact that larger lot sizes, larger than what is proposed on the
south side to buffer our neighbors on that side would be nice for you to do.
Number seven on your site specific irrigation, I think that is nice to conserve
water resources and Becky has taken a look at number eight there and has
addressed that well for me. Number 13 is certainly the same thing with the
drainage issue. Number 14 on site specific I think the highway width is certainly
appropriate and the way it's been addressed with providing the pressurized
irrigation, if Becky would agree to would be nice to keep those wheat patches
from growing and nobody able to take care of those. By the way, I don't believe
that ACHD has heard this yet officially, I don't think the commissioners have
heard this, I believe it's going to the commissioners on the 27th of January?
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 52
Bowcutt: They have heard it.
Marquart: They have heard it?
Bowcutt: Yes sir, and they asked us to extend the stub street. They have no
adopted the revised staff report, but (Inaudible).
Marquart: Great, but not the revised. Okay.
MacCoy: We are having a hard time we can't hear her coming back and so you
are asking questions that aren't being recorded. It's to your benefit that
(Inaudible) and there is a letter of narrative from Ms. Bowcutt's firm that states in
number 10 that the development is compatible with adjacent residential uses.
The design provides for larger lots next to the existing one acre lots along the
south boundary. I would like to bring to your attention that those lots are not one
acre, mine is the smallest lot and I'm over an acre. Most of the lots there are two
acres plus. The sizes of the lots, if we are actually doing a transitional from one
subdivision to these lots, they are not one acre lots that we are looking at, they
are two acre plus lots. So I think that's another reason why we might have a little
larger transitional lots on this. The other thing that bothers me a bit is the letter
that you received from Mr. Carberry on the school district. All the schools are
filled, over capacity, not at capacity, but over capacity and I think your letter
indicates that. I think it would be who of us all to take a look at that very
carefully. As these subs come on line. In addition to the parks, I believe as I
look through your Comprehensive Plan, your plan calls for five acres of park land
for every one thousand residence and the testimony this morning or earlier
today—seems like this morning stated that there be 500 or 328 lots in the other
subdivision plus 53 in this one. I don't know what the demographics are, but if
you just figure 3 people in a residence, that's over 1,100 people. Where is our
five acre park? Is it in the other subdivision that we don't see here? Yes? Okay.
Of course we don't have that opportunity to take a look at that. Well those are
the comments that I have, stand for questions.
MacCoy: Thank you very much. Anybody else?
BONNIE GLICK.
Glick: I live, of course, where is the map? (Inaudible) My property is right here.
have two, a little over two acres that abut Thousand Springs and then right here
where they brought this landscaping area around is right behind my place. My
house however, I don't know if you have any maps that show the way my house
looks. Do you have it? My house. It sits in a direction that looks northeast, so if
you look on this plat, it shows that this landscaping area, this common lot 18 is
right behind my property, but my house actually looks right over lots 17 & 16,
that's where my house looks. So one of my issues, whatever goes there, I want
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 53
it to be single story, because I have this gorgeous view of the mountains and I've
had it for 16 years and I love it, and I don't want to have it blocked off by a big
monstrous two story house. So, that's one of my requests. Becky, that was in
my letter too. A couple of concerns that I have, I feel a little bit like a broken
record, but you know, I keep referring back to the Comprehensive Plan and
earlier I heard the attorney say if it's inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan,
we can't approve it. Well, in the land view section under rural areas, 6.8U it says
that new urban density subdivisions which abut or are proximal to existing rural
residential land uses shall provide screening and transitional densities with larger
more comparable lot sizes and Mr. Young has addressed this as has Mr.
Marquart, and I still want to see right behind me—like lot 17 & 16, make that into
one lot and put one house on that lot, rather than two houses right there. Sixteen
is not that large of a lot. As they said before, these properties south of this area
are all two acres plus. These houses on these little lots are not near comparable
lot sizes to our properties and I go back to the Comprehensive Plan and say why
do we keep approving these large high densities next to our rural residential
properties that have been here for two decades. I'm a little baffled by that and
disturbed by it. I too am concerned about piping the lateral there and I guess that
I didn't understand the discussion that happened. My question is even if they put
a common lot there, my understanding is that's so we can access the lateral, was
that correct? If it's piped.
Smith: Yes.
Glick: If it's piped, however, how do we—
Smith: It won't be piped. Will it be piped?
Glick: Well however, (Inaudible) it's got to be piped if it's going to be covered.
It's going to be piped. So how do we—we right now have a well that is sunk into
the canal, into the lateral that we have an irrigation system on our place from
that. How will we access that water once it's piped? I mean, does our pump still
sit there? Is there going to be like a box where our pump can still be sunk or how
does that work? (Inaudible) okay. So there is no extra expense to us is what I'm
asking I guess, okay.
Freckleton: To address that, Briggs Engineering in their design for the
subdivision and their design for the tiling of the McDonald Lateral, they would
have to incorporate each one of your pump stations into their design to be able to
provide you with the water that you have historically had.
Glick: Okay, thank you. Let's see. As Mr. Young said, I agree that coming
around that corner from Thousand Springs, right by my place here. I had
negotiated with Becky that we would come around and have the capped fence
and it seems to me that there ought to be something consistent to go around that
corner, instead of this abrupt change. This comes up the side of our property
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 54
right here and then, my understanding now is that it stops and something else
starts. Is there anyway that we can have a consistent fence coming around that
corner, so it would be a capped fence, hopefully? Okay. Lot #18, 1 just want to
make sure that is not a drainage lot behind me. Okay. I too like Mr. Young have
a real concern about our domestic well. I sort of gather from the conversation
that happened earlier is that we can't really get an answer from anybody about
how is this going to effect our domestic wells. You know we've been there for 20
years, we have our well sunk. Many of us have re -drilled, Mrs. Hastings has re -
drilled, Mr. Young has re -drilled. Ours is about 110 feet I think and it worries me
when you guys are sinking these deep wells in even though they are deeper than
ours, like you know my understanding is too that the shallow wells then sort of
get sucked by the deeper wells. So if all these wells are going in behind us to
provide water for this development, who can guarantee me that I'm not going to
end up with no water.
Freckleton: If I could address that a little bit. I'm not a hydro -geologist. The city
wells typically, the ones that we've been drilling lately have been 600-700 feet
deep. Typically those aquifers are sealed from each other. They are not
interconnected. Especially at those kind of differentials of depth. I don't know if
that helps you any or not, but typically you don't see big draw downs.
Borup: I'm not a geologist either, but that's—I've read articles about it and that's
exactly the same thing that other experts have said. (Inaudible)
Freckleton: Our wells are solid cased down to those depths, you know, our
pumping depths where we will have our screens. We do case off those upper
water layers.
Glick: Well, it doesn't feel like a complete guarantee which is what I'm looking
for, but I guess—
Smith: How far away is the well that services this project?
Freckleton: The well that will service this project is clear over on Locust Grove at
Los Alimitos, at the entrance of Los Alimitos. The new well Thousand Springs
dedicated a well site and it is on Eagle Road, adjacent to the Ridenbaugh Canal.
So, roughly half a mile to the northeast.
Glick: Okay, I'm concerned too about the traffic. Like Rex Young, I go out and
that's a dangerous highway. People are driving up and down that highway at 60-
65 miles per hour and the corner of Eagle and Victory Road is a busy
intersection. I don't know how ACHD is planning on moving that traffic once
these large density subdivisions come in, but there is going to have to be
something done. Has there been any discussion of that at all with that corner up
there Eagle and Victory? The other thing that I have a concern about is the
covenant that they are going to put in place, if there is any way that we can make
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 55
sure that those are in place and we won't end up with junk cars and campers and
everything backed up next to our houses. Basically those are my concerns. I
think I look at the density of this right behind us and one of the biggest concerns
is, you know we have two acres and with all the berming and landscaping you
want to do you still aren't doing transitional lots when you have got how many
houses backed up to—our properties there to the south probably add up to six or
seven acres and you've got a number of houses right there behind us in the
same amount of acreage. So I would appreciate whatever you can do for those
considerations. Any questions?
MacCoy: I'm going to answer one of your questions to do with the Victory -Eagle
roadways and so on. Yes ACHD has mapped out and planned the future of that
down to something like 25 years in the future right now and they've got them all
marked as far as about when they are going to have to go forward.
Glick: Are they going to widen Victory Road?
MacCoy: They will widen Victory Road, they will widen Eagle again besides on
the way down. You know what Eagle is up North, it will be carried further south
as we get more and more people out there. Which is where it is going to go, it's
going to go both ways. It goes south, it's going to go north of 84 because our city
is growing. If you look at it, we are about 33,000-34,000 now. The year 2004 to
some place in there or 2005 they are predicting we'll be somewhere close to
between 50,000-60,000 people in Meridian alone. So you can imagine when it
happens. Nampa is also growing in a very fast rate and Boise is almost out of
land, so. I don't know what you are going to do to pull the plug to stop all this,
because people know a good place when they see it is what I think it amounts to.
Glick: Well I guess my admiration would be let's keep it a good place.
MacCoy: (Inaudible) I don't know how you stop that, there is a very historic court
order that was taken in California when the Oklahoma people moved into
California thinking they found the promised land, which it was, but California said
no way, so they passed a law in the state of California (Inaudible) take a walk.
The federal government stepped in and thou shall not be able to do that including
every state there is, you can not force people out, you can't keep them out.
Glick: Well I do appreciate the consideration that you guys have made for our
wishes and I hope that we can work together to reach a conclusion that is good
for all of us.
MacCoy: I'll put one more plug in here. The firm that Becky works for has shown
in the past that they do as much as they can for the people that around there,
because they feel too that you have got quite a nice place and they would like to
have a nice place when they leave. So I think they do a good job. Thank you.
Any questions for Mrs. Glick.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 56
Borup: I maybe more of—go ahead.
Smith: Well go ahead. I'll go.
Borup: She had made a reference to the comp plan, I assume she was talking
about the reference in her letter. Were you aware that that section was referred
to rural areas, outside of the limits, it didn't apply to areas in the city limits? Okay
just maybe a clarification there.
Glick: But we are not in the city limits.
Borup: This annexation, the subdivision is. I mean there is a lot of other things
that it talks about. It's not talking about areas that are adjoining the city limits. I
don't believe, at least in my interpretation of the one that you referenced to. But
also as we discussed earlier, this subdivision—the density isn't, it's below the
three per acre. That's already been mentioned earlier, according to the comp
plan in that area, they need to add a few more lots in here. Sorry about that
Shari.
MacCoy: (Inaudible) you and I both sat on the board some years ago when there
was another project that went in there which we denied because we thought the
density was too high if you recall that.
Borup: That was before my time.
MacCoy: No it wasn't either.
Borup: Yes it was, but I know what you were talking about, Highland Ranch.
Smith: I would like to just tell Mrs. Glick that I do agree on you with that
transitional lot sizes. I think it's unfortunate. This context, you know this
Thousand Springs Subdivision is quite large, it seems to be contiguous with that.
I—since I've been on this commission a year and a half, I have not seen a project
come through proposing a density less than an R-4 zoning. It's disturbing to me,
but I'm not going to get on my R-4 soap box right now.
MacCoy: Thank you.
Smith: Leading into that, Shari you made a comment, about higher density along,
I guess it was Eagle Road, this is—well it used to be out in the sticks, but there is
no, to my knowledge, there is no other higher density along Eagle Road
anywhere close that would, could even begin to support some kind of mass
transit system. Are you talking buses, are you talking—what are you, could you
clarify that statement and just how this project in its proposed—it's fairly small in
perspective to the whole are that is going to be developed in the residential and
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 57
how this project could address a higher density that would answer your concern
about...
Stiles: You have to understand that in Meridian R-4 is low density. That's
considered low density.
Smith: Don't get me on this R-4 soap box. I want you to talk about the higher
density along that you had referred to. Higher density higher than this
subdivision is proposing.
Stiles: Along arterial corridors unless the City of Meridian starts developing high
density and I mean high density 15-20 units per acre along these corridors, we
will never be able to support a public transit system of any kind.
Smith: I'm sure you are going to make sure that's addressed in the
Comprehensive Plan Amendments.
MacCoy: Yes it will be.
Stiles: It's already in the Comprehensive Plan and this is designated as a mixed
residential area, which meant that there would be a mixture of housing types
within this area and preferably higher density along the arterials. As far as this
being high density, it's not.
Smith: Well I think we've heard from a number of other individuals tonight who
disagree with that statement. I have a tendency to agree with them and maybe
it's just because I've lived in this state for a long time, I remember what it used to
be like. I think the City of Meridian is making a major mistake having all the
same type of housing everywhere, whether it's R-4, there has nothing been
proposed as less, has less density, very little projects that have more density, the
hodge-podge around and I'm going to stop because I'm...
MacCoy: Commissioner Smith you are going to be on the board anyway when
we go through the Comprehensive Plan for it's review, so you will have a chance
to do a lot of discussion there.
Smith: Yeah, I'll close that can of worms, because that is not entering into my—
that's not an issue to me on this project.
MacCoy: Let's move on, it's getting late. Okay, you want to say something to us
here?
Bowcutt: I would just like to address some of the statements that the neighbors
had to get this on the record. One statement that I would like to state in support
of what Shari said, in previous discussion, Eagle Road north you indicated, I
don't feel that corridor is appropriate for single family housing. I think maybe 10-
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 58
15 years from now, as you go south of the interstate, you may have the same
feeling as the volume of traffic increase. I think what Shari is getting at in the
comp plan, it calls for mixed residential, which allows one to increase densities
and have multiple types of residential uses 4-plexes, some apartments or so
forth. You will see a change in development once the city imposes some type of
a planned unit development chapter that can be worked with, where you get what
you want, the mixed uses. The lower density that can be supported by some
higher density pockets over by next to the arterials. This is 2.7 dwelling units per
acre, we drop any lower than this, this project won't happen. You can't afford to
build the sewer, the water, the streets, put in the street lights and the hydrants, it
won't happen. We are in an R-4 mindset, I agree, but we've been forced into that
mindset with some of the problems with the ordinance and with the comp plan
changes that you guys are getting ready to do, I applaud it, you are getting
closer, that's your first step. Then you go into the ordinance and start bringing it
up to date with good strong PUD chapters that require amenities such as open
space, swimming pools, tennis courts, trade offs for this high density. I won't get
off my soap box, I just want to put that on the record. On the well issue, I just
want to state that in my dealings with south county water and united water, we've
done major wells on other subdivisions in different areas. I'm no hydrologist
unlike Bruce, but what I've been told by those experts is that when we get down
in that 500-600-700 foot level, that is that third aquifer, we have three. The very
shallow, the middle and then that deep one. When that well does go in, in
Thousand Springs, the effect on the adjoining shallow wells should not be
detrimental. That's what we have been told by the experts. I just wanted to put
that on the record. Covenants to answer Mrs. Glick's questions, yes we will be
doing protective covenants. The protective covenants will be consistent with the
Thousand Springs covenants. They address issues like no junk cars, no trailers
can be parked in front of the houses. Landscaping requirements, x number of
trees, shrubs. All those covenants, they will probably, as soon as we get through
the hearing process they will start developing them. We already have them on
Thousand Springs One, we could give her a copy of that for her review to look at
before we go to City Council. If she sees some deficiencies that she thinks we
should be aware of, that's great, then she has an opportunity to bring those up.
Density and lot sizes in the development, the minimum lot size is 8,000 in the R-
4. We don't have any lot that is 8,000. Our average lot size in this development
if you went through and averaged them out, I'm sure is 11,000-12,000 square
feet. The ones along that perimeter I intentionally tried to make as large as
possible. We can even make them a little bit larger by shifting the cul-de-sac to
the north. You have to understand with that corridor for the piping of the
McDonald Lateral, there will be a 35 foot corridor there. We can put it in a
common lot, we can put it in an easement. We have to make sure that everyone
has access to their water, it's state law. The Boise Project Border control says
we must submit plans that go to their board for review showing how we are going
to provide water to all the individuals. My understanding is they irrigate on little
pumps, so they would all need boxes. On the projects that I've done in the past
we've coordinates with all the joining property owners, we give them a copy of
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 59
the plan, we have a sit down meeting with an engineer that explains how it
works. If they are happy with it, then we sent that on to the irrigation district.
That's what I propose here.
Smith: Do you have a preference over a common lot, versus an easement?
Bowcutt: If it's a common lot, then the lot owner is not taxed for that area, I think
that's been one of the concerns of City Council people paying property taxes for
property they can't use, which encourages them in five years to move their fence
out into that easement. In the past, all the projects I've done in Meridian, I've
tried to put them in common lots so they are protected and nobody thinks it's
theirs and the association pays taxes on it, not—it's not the burden of one
individual lot owner, or two or three.
De Weerd: And maintains it too, correct?
Bowcutt: Yes. We will probably talk to Boise Project Border Control, I don't
know if they go through and spray now or what. You know, some times there
can be some arrangement that they spray once a year to keep it down, if they do
not, it would obviously fall on the association. You are correct. The right to farm
statement, I don't see a problem with that as brought up by Mr. Marquart, it's on
our plat for Thousand Springs, it's on our plat for Sherbrooke Hollows,
Sherbrooke Village, that is west of this. It is a state law putting it on the face of
the plat makes it known to everyone. The client agrees to add that to the plat. I
want to make it clear that we are not piping all of that at McDonald Lateral, we
are only required to pipe which transverses us. So it would be open to the east.
It is a city requirement for the public's knowledge that we pipe any ditch that has
a 48 inch or less pipe size, for ditch safety purposes. As far as berming, that is a
troublesome one, where do you put the berm, who maintains the berm, like I
mentioned before in my presentation, if the back side of the berm goes down to
the property, who maintains that? One particular project that I worked on, one of
the adjoining property owners that wanted the berm said you can build it on my
parcel, I'll let you do that and I'll maintain it. In that case it worked. I'd like an
opportunity to move forward with the project. I'll get with the neighbors, we will
talk through the issues. They have another opportunity when we go before the
City Council they will get notice. It's hard to work out those issues in our amount
in this type of forum, as you—as Mr. MacCoy has brought to my attention we
can't be talking back and forth. We need to have a sit down and go over it.
Whether it's on the phone or everybody is together on a one on one. I've been
successful in this area coming to compromises that worked well for everybody.
There are some things that we can do, there are some things that we can't.
Masonry walls are very expensive. I want to make note that we are talking
residential to residential. Compatibility does not mean exactly the same when
you are dealing with residential. I've gone through this many, many times when I
would butt two acre or acre lots. We try to make them as big as we can, maybe
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 60
we can come a little closer, but I would like an opportunity out of this forum to do
so. So I would ask that you approve this and send us forward please.
Nelson: I have a question for you real quick. As these lot sizes grow, doesn't
that tend to push for a larger home size on that lot?
Bowcutt: Yes sir. The larger the lot, the more expensive the lot, typically, unless
you have a lot that is non -like the other lots in the development. If all the lots in a
particular subdivision or all the homes are say $165,000 to $200,000 are you
going to go build a $350,000 dollar house in the middle? Probably not, nobody
likes to be the most expensive.
Nelson: I was deluding to the issue with the two story homes and the view.
Bowcutt: Oh, two story.
Nelson: Even though views aren't guaranteed by law to anyone.
Bowcutt: Right. It was discussed on Thousand Springs #1 the issue and we did
come to a compromise.
De Weerd: I think the point he was...
(END OF TAPE)
Smith: ...we can do, we did it.
De Weerd: I won't comment on that. I do want you to restate your comment
about ACHD's report, so we have it on record.
Bowcutt: Oh, the Ada County Highway District—a staff report was drafted, we
reviewed it with staff. It went before the highway district commissioners. We
were in agreement, they heard it, discussed it, they concurred with staff report,
they asked that we provide a public street connection to Mr. Harris's home
parcel. So the staff contacted us, asked us if we agreed, we said yes, they
revised the staff report. The new staff report I don't believe has gone to the
commissioners, but they have already heard and discussed this project in it's
entirety. They just added an additional condition for the record.
Smith: Is there not a berm now along the south access to Thousand Springs
between what is it, South Bennett Bay and Mrs. Glick's property.
Bowcutt: Is there a berm here now?
Smith: Yeah, or part of the (Inaudible) development
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 61
Bowcutt: Yes we agreed to put a berm here, because this is a collector street.
Then we would put a six foot wood fence with a cap and what our intent is, we
would take that berm and wrap through here, the same type of fencing would
wrap through. I also, one of the concerns of Mr. Young was what about the
integrity of the fence over time? I talked to the client, one of the things that I've
been trying to bring our developers to spend a little more money on these fences
and go with steel posts. Wood, dog earred with caps, but steel posts because
steel posts don't rot out and (Inaudible) have a tendency to lean like some of the
old fences. They said yes that would be acceptable to go with the steel post so
we don't get a lean or rotting of the posts. Yes, we are going to try and make it
consistent and wrap through here.
Smith: Some of the concerns of like Mr. Young, you could continue that berm
conceptually down to the south east corner lots 15 & 14.
Bowcutt: But it would be on their private property.
Smith: Yeah, but that's something that...
Bowcutt: You mean continue it here?
Smith: Yeah all the way to the east there.
Bowcutt: On our side or their side.
Smith: I don't want to tell you how. Just the point was brought up that they would
like to see a berm and fence right along there. So whether it's centered on the
property line, shifted to one side or the other, I don't know, but you did it on.
Bowcutt: But I can't.
Smith: Why not?
Bowcutt: The McDonald Lateral is there. The McDonald Lateral is running right
here. It weaves kind of back and forth, but it is on our...
Smith: You can't put dirt?
Bowcutt: I can put dirt, but I can't put a berm.
Smith: That's stupid.
Bowcutt: They claim that would be additional excavation.
Smith: It would be yeah. If they had to go in and maintain it.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 62
Bowcutt: I sent them a letter asking for this in writing. They told me verbally over
the phone, staff can call them, and they said no berm in our easement, no fence
in our easement.
Smith: So it would have to be on the south side of the property line.
Bowcutt: So what I'm saying is that it would have to be either on their side or it
would have to be north on the lot. If I put a berm here on the private lot and Mr.
Borup buys that lot, and after he's been there a couple of year, he thinks I don't
like that, I'm tearing it out, what can you or I do to stop it?
Smith: Right.
Bowcutt: That's one concern .that I would have.
Smith: Somebody had asked that homes along that—it's 15 through lots 17 be
single story, would you have a problem with that? It's only three lots.
Bowcutt: The developer would not like that, however, we didn't like it over there
either. So I guess I'm not going to say that he's just jumping for joy here.
Smith: No, but okay.
Bowcutt: No, I guess we disagree with it. I think I stated before we think it's a
right whether you want a one or two story home. The ordinance does not give
this body the authority to dictate single story.
Smith: Okay, the only thing that wasn't addressed I think was the gentleman's
comments about amateur astronomer and I know all our street lights are
basically down lights, but they through light all over the place. I'm not a lighting
engineer, so...
Bowcutt: Public works department determines the location of them and they
dictate the specifications for them and they are all those capped lights that shine
downward and don't go that way. Maybe they could be diligent in how they want
those located over by his property so that we don't have any of that light.
Nelson: I think you'd have more problem with the flood lights in the backyards.
Borup: Patio lights.
Bowcutt: Possibility, can't deny it.
Smith: So we can just tell this gentleman to call Bruce and...
Bowcutt: Oh yeah, he is further east. He doesn't back up to us, he's over there.

Smith: Right on the corner?
Bowcutt: Yes.
Marquart: No.
Bowcutt: You are just one off right?
Marquart: Three off.
Bowcutt: You are three, so—but you don't abut us.
Marquart: I say light goes a long way it doesn't care how far away you are.
Bowcutt: Okay, here is Mrs. Glick, Mrs. Hastings, Mr. Young, Mr. Allen, so you
are right there? So he is right here. Does he back up to us? No. We back up to
Mrs. Hastings, Mrs. Glick and just a portion of Mr. Youngs, because his parcel
comes over here. So I've got three parcels that I've...
MacCoy: Okay are you finished? Okay.
Bowcutt: ...and this gentleman's parcel here that testified first.
Smith: Oh, I did have one more. At the beginning you started talking about that
property that is called Not of Heart (sic). Did you say that that was to be included
in this annexation and zoning (Inaudible) now?
Bowcutt: Yes sir.
Smith: Okay.
Bowcutt: Not in the plat, but in the annexation.
MacCoy: Okay, you have another piece up here? You want to make a
statement or—something that you haven't mentioned before we look—try to get
things keeping.
REX YOUNG.
Young: I just want to make sure that I understand this right and it goes on the
record right as far as that berm is concerned. Now, if you take, if I understand it
correctly, assuming McDonald Lateral is the property line and it's pretty close,
then the irrigation people have an easement that goes 21 feet to the north, and
15 feet to the south. Thou shall not build a berm in that 36 foot area? Isn't that
correct?
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 64
Bowcutt: Correct.
Young: The thing that I'm suggesting is that the berm be built to the north of that
easement. It would be 21 feet from the center line of the ditch in essence.
That's where I'm suggesting that it be built.
Borup: So Mr. Young you are recommending, you are saying it would be built on
those properties, on those lots? So it would be built on a private lot?
Young: I'm saying that it would be built 21 feet north of the center line of the
ditch. Now whether they sell those lots off or not, or they keep that as a common
area, that's up to them.
Borup: What would your feeling be if it was south of the ditch?
Young: Well, if they want to build it to the south side of the ditch, they've got to
go 15 feet and they are going to have some gigantic hybrid poplars they are
going to have to contend with to build that berm.
Borup: So you already got a big screen there?
Young: I've got poplars along that side, yes.
Borup: Thank you.
MacCoy: Is there anybody else now we get down to the lateness of the hour
here. Anybody else who wants to speak for either the 5 or 6 item on our list?
Okay commissioners what do you want to do.
Smith: Mr. Chairman, I would like to make a motion that we close this public
hearing. We haven't discussed amongst ourselves.
De Weerd: Second. We are going to have discussion.
Nelson: It doesn't really matter.
Borup: Did you have a question for someone in the audience?
Nelson: No.
MacCoy: Well we can go ahead and close it then.
De Weerd: We don't need to vote until he has his discussion right?
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
' JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 65
Nelson: My question was going to be about the status of the flat and whether
we need to request a revised plat. We already know it's wrong, before we
approve this to City Council.
Borup: Because of the one road extension?
Nelson: Road extension, there is different lots, and clarification on some other
stuff.
Smith: Common lot.
Nelson: We've got some common lot issues.
Smith: Road was shifted.
(Inaudible)
Borup: You're talking about the road going into the Harris Property.
Nelson: We kind of set a policy that it comes back here correct before it goes on
to City Council. So I thought I would ask what the—how do we want to handle
that now? Now that—it used to come back to us and different things...
Borup: We can still go ahead and handle the annexation and zoning and discuss
that.
MacCoy: We've got two issues here right now that we are trying to close the
public hearing for. (Inaudible) yeah, but we've got to vote separately on the final
piece for that.
Smith: So lets knock off annexation and zoning.
MacCoy: Yeah, so you do that first.
Smith: So we vote on that.
MacCoy: Vote on the closing of the public hearing. All in favor?
MOTION CARRIED: All ayes.
MacCoy:.) said closing on 5 & 6.
Borup: Okay, thank you (Inaudible).
MacCoy: Now we pay attention to the issue itself at number 5. Discuss that one
which is the annexation and zoning. What is your discussion on that?
T PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999

Smith: Well, I guess unfortunately it doesn't sound like that berm thing is going
to work.
Borup: That would be a plat issue wouldn't it?
De Weerd: Yes.
MacCoy: Not a zoning issue.
Smith: That is true.
Borup: Anybody have any other comments on the annexation and zoning?
Smith: No, no. Sorry.
De Weerd: No.
MacCoy: Okay, do I get a motion?
De Weerd: Yes Mr. Chairman, I move that we recommend annexation and
zoning of the 21.54 acres for the proposed Thousand Springs Village.
Borup: Second.
De Weerd: To include staff comments and ACHD's reports as revised.
MacCoy: Thank you. Okay, Mr. Borup what were you going to say?
Borup: I just said second.
MacCoy: Okay thank you, I got the thing confused from this end. Any
discussion? If none, what's my vote? All in favor?
MOTION CARRIED: All ayes.
MacCoy: All ayes have it, so number 5 annexation and zoning is now passed on
to the council. Item 6 is a preliminary plat for Thousand Springs Village.
Borup: May have some discussion here. You are ready to make a motion you
mean?
De Weerd: Well I have a number of items to include in a motion. Do we want to
first discuss those, before a motion is made?
Borup: I think that would be appropriate.
r PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 67
Nelson: List them as a bullet item. So we can have them worked out before we.
De Weerd: I do have that um, they would need to have access to the residence
through a common lot for the irrigation from the McDonald Lateral to include right
to farm on statement on the plat to make the revisions to the plat as instructed by
ACHD and through staff comments. To require a berm that will be agreed upon
with the residents to the south of the property.
Borup: Let her go through and maybe we can go back. What no?
Smith: No, that's fine, we can do that.
Borup: Was that it commissioner? Four items.
De Weerd: Yeah.
Smith: I would add one that the homes on lots 15, 16, 17 be single story.
Rossman: My legal opinion is...
Smith: I know that you don't like it, and I notably, your legal opinion is going to
tell me I'm...
Rossman: Relax a minute, let me state my legal opinion, it's my job and that is
that you can't restrict story heights on houses. There is nothing in the ordinances
that allows you to do that.
Smith: Is there anything in the ordinance that says I can't?
Rossman: Well would you like me to hand you a case tomorrow after I research
it that will say that you can't. I mean it's out there. (Inaudible).
Borup: I can't remember the specifics, but just recently I did hear a court case
addressing that.
Nelson: We might request that the developer encourage it.
MacCoy: That's what he can do.
Rossman: Sure.
Smith: Okay, we could state it that way.
De Weerd: We can certainly try that.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
JANUARY 12, 1999
PAGE 68
Smith: But getting back to this berm thing. It was a good point made about if it's
constructed on the subdivision home owners side, they can go tear it out any
time they want to and then it's gone. It's been a waste of money...
Borup: Another point, we've done a lot of berms over the last while, but I don't
believe we've ever done any between two residential areas. I can't think of a
single one.
Smith: Sounds like he's got popular trees planted, there is—without seeing it, I
don't know how good of a screen it is already.
Borup: We'll he'd have to cut them down to see the berm.
Smith: If you put a berm, it's going to kill the trees. So it doesn't work. It just
seems 21 feet north, or 15 feet south seems silly. Seems like it should go right
on the property line, and this stupid irrigation thing that they can't pull another
extra shovel of dirt out is—it doesn't work very well.
MacCoy: (Inaudible)
Smith: It works poorly. I wouldn't think...
Borup: I would have to agree with that.
Smith: I wouldn't put anything in about a berm. Unless you want to say
encourage pursuing it with...
De Weerd: Just like the single story thing.
Smith: A little more loose than that.
Borup: I think it's already been established that there is no place to put it.
De Weerd: The developer, or Becky did say that she would work with the
residents and meet with them on that issue, so, I took that for face value.
MacCoy: Okay, what else do we have?
Smith: That's it for me.
Borup: I don't...
De Weerd: Well if you want me to make the motion, it's not going to include the
single story thing, you may want to make...
Smith: Well I'll amend your motion to include it. So you can either say it, or I will.

motion.
De Weerd: Yes.
Borup: The common lot, the right to farm, the new plat showing Zimms
extending to Harris Property to the east and then the other four and five was
encouragement, not a condition.
MacCoy: What is the right to farm issue you have.
De Weerd: The statement that we had through the plat.
MacCoy: That's required by state law.
De Weerd: To be added on the plat.
Borup: But it's not always on the plat though.
(Inaudible)
De Weerd: It is law, but we would like it added to the plat.
MacCoy: Okay go ahead and make the statement, but I think it's redundant. Go
ahead.
Borup: Is that—am I incorrect on that, they are not always on the plat.
MacCoy: I've seen them on the plat.
Borup: Well yeah...
Nelson: That forces disclosure to the new buyer.
MacCoy: Well they can go back in a case of law and win. Isn't that right Eric?
Rossman: Yes, the requirement is state law (Inaudible).
Borup: It's a lot easier if you don't have to do that.

and send it to City Council.
De Weerd: I feel comfortable.
Borup: She showed us the concept of it moving all over the—the street went on
through and Pine Flats Avenue moved one block to the east or one lot, one lot to
the east.
De Weerd: I think that she showed it—well isn't that the property of the city now?
Smith: (Inaudible).
Borup: Well was there a revised preliminary plat turned in anywhere even on an
8 X 10 or anything?
De Weerd: I only saw it on the (Inaudible).
Bowcutt: The Ada County Highway District (Inaudible) did I send one to Shari?
No, I just brought it on the bulletin board, but I could submit that board to
evidence.
De Weerd: That was my point.
Borup: Okay, then we've got it.
Smith: So the only thing that needs to be changed is the common lot along the
lateral.
De Weerd: Yes, so the change...
Smith: And the inclusion of the right to farm act on the plat
De Weerd: Right. Well, okay, it might need an amendment. Mr. Chairman, I
move that we recommend the preliminary plat for Thousand Springs Village with
a ACHD report as revised, staff comments submitted and including that there be
a common lot allowing access to the residents to the south for their irrigation
water that the statement for the right to farm act should be on the preliminary plat
and what else was on the preliminary plat? Oh, to show the common lot that we
recommend a berm to be agreed upon with the residents.

Smith: We have to vote on it right? It's been moved and seconded, we need a
vote on it right?
MacCoy: You have an amendment before we make the vote.
Rossman: What are you saying Will?
Berg: Mr. Chairman, the parliamentary procedure that I'm aware of that you can
amend motions that are on the table, through discussion, you can amend a
motion because you vote on the amendment to the motion.
Borup: First.
Berg: Then you get back to the basic motion.
Rossman: Well we also have a motion on the table by Commissioner De Weerd
who did not anticipate or desire the amendment to it. So my feeling is that you
address that motion first and then if there is an amendment then you can address
that separately.
MacCoy: What if she doesn't like the amendment?

Borup: Well that's why I think (Inaudible)...
Rossman: To allow someone else to amend her motion before it's addressed.
Berg: I agree with you logically that makes sense, but parliamentary you can
amend and have a motion on the floor to amend a motion and it be outvoted and
not have the amendment.

Rossman: That's fine, you can go ahead and allow it to be amended and
outvoted and go back to the original motion.
Borup: If the amended motion stands on it's own, it's voted separately.

the parliamentary route.
MacCoy: I don't care (Inaudible) go with it.
Smith: Because I was the one who wanted to amend it, I think it makes sense to
do it. To vote on the motion.

different.

can't do that can we? I'm in the midst of trying to go through this. Request for a
conditional use permit for a child day care facility by the same individual and the
same location. Looking at number seven, staff? Where is my staff, looks like
everybody disserted the ship here.
Stiles: I'm really all alone.
MacCoy: You wait till we get with her over here. Comments on items 7 & 8,
what do you see?
Stiles: We have our comments, we had no particular problems with it. Ada
County Highway District however in their report they are restricting them to one
access that has to line up with the adjacent access across Linder Road, which
the applicant is doing right now.
Unknown: I got those comments on Friday, so this—there will no longer be an
access right here.
Stiles: Well, I don't know where the access.
MacCoy: Okay let her finish her statement before we open, we haven't gotten to

edge.
1.25 Construct a 5 -foot wide concrete sidewalk on Eagle Road abutting the
entire site including the out parcel. The sidewalk shall be located two
feet within the new right-of-way of Eagle Road. Coordinate the location
of the sidewalk with District staff.
1.26 Utility street cuts in new pavement less than five years old are not

sections with curb, gutter, and 5 -foot wide concrete sidewalks within 50 -
feet of the right-of-way.
1.31 Construct an ACHD approved turnaround at the end of Goldbug Court.
Submit a design of the turnaround for review and approval by District
Staff.
1.32 Other than the access points specifically approved with this application,
direct lot or parcel access to is prohibited. Lot access restrictions, as
required with this application, shall be stated on the final plat.

Re: Application of Martin Development, Inc. for annexation and zoning and
preliminary plat approval of approx. 21.54 acres of land located north of E. Victory Rd.,

our property is adjacent to this proposed development, directly south of Lot 18 in Block 3.
our first and foremost concern about this development which

states under RURAL AREAS,6.8U:

Why is it that the City of Meridian continues to consider and approve high density
subdivisions abutting existing
rural residential densities? We and our neighbors have lived
in a rural residential area for 20 years and more. Now we are faced with multiple houses
backed up against our property, blocking our view of the mountains and generally
depriving us of the ambiance of rural living that we have enjoyed for many years.
We know we cannot stop the development of these areas. oT w this would askdirectthe

This would be a better transition to our 2-5 acre lots. Also, 53 houses on 21 acres is

approximately 4 houses per acre not counting the roads and common lots. This actually
adds up to a higher density than R4.
We are dismayed that building houses directly behind us will block our view of the
mountains, something we have enjoyed for many years and that gives our own property
more value. We ask that the houses on the culdesac of E. Goldburg Court in Block 3 be
one story structures to preserve our view.
We are concerned that the McDonald Lateral will be left in tact since that is how we
irrigate our property. Also, will the easement for the Irrigation Company be preserved to
the north of the McDonald Lateral?
We notice that Lot 18 in Block 3 is a common lot. This is directly behind part of our
property. We do not want this to be a drainage lot since our domestic water well is very
close to this lot and we fear it would impact our drinking water. Also, what exactly will be
placed on this common lot?
We have an additional concern that this large of a development will affect our domestic
wells in our area. Many folks have had to redrill deeper wells in the past few years. How
will this development get domestic water and how will it be irrigated? Can we be assured
that this won't affect our own, existing water supply?
We would like to negotiate with the developer what kind of fence is put directly behind our
property.
We are concerned with traffic on Victory Rd. and Eagle Rd. with this high density
subdivision coming in and the Thousand Springs Subdivision adjacent to it. The corner of
Eagle and Victory Rd. is already a dangerous, busy intersection. What is the highway
department doing to assure traffic flow?
We ask that the developer have adequate covenants in place so that the homeowners are
prohibited from having junk cars, campers, etc. lined up at the back of our property. We
would like to see these covenants, if possible.
We are generally opposed to this kind of high density development next to our rural
residential properties. We would hope the City of Meridian will consider the
Comprehensive Plan's guidelines in mandating lower density buffers to our larger
properties. This will preserve a little of the rural ambiance we have enjoyed for many

General Comments:

N' i .
CITY OF MERIDIAN
1. The applicant will pipe any internal ditches which provide irrigation or drainage water to
downstream users. The McDonald Lateral adjoins the site along the south boundary. The
facility terminates at the east boundary of Thousand Springs Subdivision and outlets through
a pipe for discharge into the Ridenbaugh Canal. The Boise Project Board of Control has
jurisdiction of the McDonald Lateral. The applicant will submit plans for piping the facility
for their review and approval.
2. No domestic wells or septic systems exist on the subject property.
3. Five foot sidewalks will be constructed within the development and adjacent to Eagle Road
frontage.
4. Any revisions requested by the Street Name Committee will be incorporated into the
preliminary plat.
5. Fire hydrant locations will be coordinated with City staff.
6. The subject development lies outside the floodplain as delineated on the FEMA maps.
7. Responses to staff s comments will be submitted on January 11, 1999.
Site Specific Comments:
1. The legal description repeats a call twice and is in error. A revised legal description will be
submitted to staff.
The parcel in the northeast corner is not a part of the preliminary plat; however, the parcel
is included in the annexation request. Staff indicated in the pre -application conference that
Mr. Harris' parcel should be included in the annexation application since Mr. Harris
previously owned a portion of the subject property being developed.

7. Applicant has indicated that the pressurized irrigation system within this development is
to be an extension of the Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District system being installed to
serve the Thousand Springs Subdivision and Sherbrooke Hollows.
8. Applicant shall be responsible to construct a six -foot -high, permanent perimeter fence
along property boundary, except where the City has expressly agreed, in writing, that
such fencing is not necessary. Applicant shall also install either three- to four -foot -high
fencing or non-combustible, non -sight -obscuring fencing along the northern boundary of
Lot 19, Block 1, and the eastern boundary of Lot 17, Block 1. Fencing is to be in place
prior to applying for building permits.
9. S. Lava Way, to the north of this proposed project, was stubbed to this property for future
extension. The applicant is proposing to leave S. Lava Way as a cul de sac and provide a
pedestrian walkway to provide inter -neighborhood connection. Because of the proposed
layout, staff supports the pedestrian walkway. The pedestrian walkway needs to be
paved and landscaped in accordance with City Ordinance.
10. A stub street needs to be provided to the westerly boundary of the two -acre (+/-) parcel
that is not included as part of the plat, but is included as part of the annexation.
11. A detailed landscape plan for the common areas, including fencing locations and types of
construction, shall be submitted for review and approval with the submittal of the final
plat map. A letter of credit or cash surety will be required for the improvements prior to
signature on the final plat.
12. A development agreement is required for this project, as a condition of annexation of the
property.
13. Will the drainage system being designed in the northwest corner of this development
have a discharge point to the existing ditch system? Are drainage facilities being
designed on Lot 19, Block 1? It appears that the storm drains discharge into this lot.
14. Applicant proposes 50 -foot -wide rights-of-way throughout the development; with the
four -foot -wide planting strip shown, two feet of each sidewalk would be on private
property. Staff requests that the street and sidewalk improvements in their entirety be
within a minimum 55 -foot -wide ACHD right-of-way; a total right-of-way width of 57
feet would be preferred for this configuration. Staff could support the existing
configuration provided that the developer installs the necessary landscaping and
irrigation, including trees, within the four -foot -wide planting strip, similar to the first
phase of Los Alamitos No. 1.
