Notarized Request for Zone Change — submitted under separate cover . 4. Legal Description - attached 5. Present Land Use: Currently the bulk of the land is vacant and unused. There are two residences and assorted garages and outbuildings associated with the houses as well as a large red barn. Along the highway frontage there is an area that has been filled and leveled and is used to store manufactured homes waiting to be sold and shipped. 6. Proposed Land Use: We propose to build a 300 unit apartment home community that will be a mixed use of "affordable" and "market rate" apartments in a single owned community. The community will have a large clubhouse facility with pool and recreational amenities, tot lots, sport courts, picnic areas and covered parking. The individual apartment homes will be two and three bedroom and designed for family use. 7. Present Zoning: The present zoning of a majority of the property is RT. A small strip along the highway is zoned C -G. 8. Proposed Zoning: The proposed zoning is R-15 to allow for an apartment community. 9. Characteristics: The site has several physical limitations that affect its • use. First, it has over 1,500 feet of interstate highway frontage that would restrict a low density residential use. The shape of the property is quite • irregular with the nine mile drain traversing diagonally across the western border and a large chunk taken out along the eastern border for an existing utility building use. These irregularities would make a retail use undesirable. Light industrial or an apartment community would be appropriate uses. There is currently light industrial zoned vacant land along the highway corridor but there are no areas for medium high density multi -family uses. We think this site makes a good transition to the single family neighbors on the south as an apartment community. 10. Desirability: The site has single family residential to the south, commercial uses to the west, an interstate freeway on the north and a large vacant area to the east. An apartment community would be a good transitional buffer between the commercial, freeway uses and the single family residential subdivisions. This apartment community will give Meridian residents additional housing opportunities that are not currently present in the community, and it will help the commercial area expand with the addition of more residents. 11. The comprehensive plan for Meridian identifies this area as a mixed use review area as identified in the zoning and development ordinance. The Mixed Use Review Area has "unique location" and "varied potential." As I have discussed previously in the characteristics and desirability sections, • we feel it is exactly because of the unique location and varied potential that makes this site perfect for medium high density residential. 12.

Again, I was unable to nun the computer model for this project due to what burns out to be rather catastrophic computer problems. The follomrig is a surrxrnary of findings in JUB Engineers' 1998 Sewer Master Plan Update which was adopted last nxxM by Counoi as the official planning document forthe sennrei' system in the Citys Area Cf Impact The JUB report indicated that at the time the computer sewer model was calibrated and analyzed for the existing sewer systern in September 1998, there existed approArnately 760 single family equivalent residential Wits of capacity left in the trunk just above the confluence wiin the Nine Mie Tns* (south of I-&. near the Coca-Cola boft). Since that time, approximately 500 Ids have been, at a muni mxT% ffyough the preliminary plat stage This would leave only about 260 un is of capacity tett. Approximately 60 — 80 acres, not irncludirng this proposed apartment project, is still designated to be ser woad by the Ten Mie Tnuxk. Finally, the JUB model assumes much of the area in which this project is proposed is designated as commercial flow. By designating this area as commercial in the model, the critical peels flows projected are kxnw than what can be expected by introducing residential type development. This is due to the fact that resideritial peal[ flows, at least in Meridian, occur on the weekends when retail and commercial flows are typically much tower Again, the potential Impacts of this developrymernt on the a asting sewer system and the other areas domed to be serviced by this fink are int and 1 recommend adequate computer modeling be done prior to proceeding with final Public Works Department comments.

Therefore, we respectfully request that the five public hearings referenced above be continued until such time as serviceability is determined. Continue G le It, 1- RECElvED Statement of Concerns About SEP 2 1 1999 Proposed Sundance Apartment Community CITY OF MERIDIAN From the Meridian Greens Homeowners Association 18 September, 1999 Dear Councilmen: Meridian Greens is a community of almost 300 homes, established over a period of about nine years. During that time, we have seen the city of Meridian more than triple in population. We have witnessed the impact that this population growth has had on the city's supporting infrastructure, including schools, traffic, police protection, and utilities, such as water and sewer. As a neighborhood likely to be directly affected, we are concerned that approval of this Apartment Community will have severe negative consequences on our local infrastructure. We would like specific answers on how the Council and the city plan to deal with our concerns about the following problem areas: Schools — According to Mr. Jim Carberry's report to the Council received 14 July 1999, construction and population of this Apartment Community would add a predicted 99 elementary aged children, 75 middle school aged children, and 68 senior high aged children to our local Meridian schools. In the same report, Mr. Carberry also states that the affected elementary and high schools are currently over capacity (that is, have more students than the school was designed to hold), and the middle school is at capacity until a new middle school is completed Many of us in this and other nearby subdivisions have children in these affected schools and are already troubled by the problems that our overcrowded classrooms cause. Knowing the difficulty of passing school bonds, please explain your plans to ensure a quality education to our children in schools that are currently at or over capacity, and will be well over capacity if this Apartment Community is approved. Traffic — The increased population in Ada County and the construction along I-84 at the 84/184 interchange has slowed rush-hour traffic and caused motorists to seek alternate routes from Canyon County into and out of Boise. It is obvious that one alternate is Overland Road, where we have seen estimates of 2 — 5% per week traffic increases since construction started. Our understanding is that any widening of Overland is not scheduled for three to five (3 — 5) years, which is well beyond the timeframe for completion of the proposed Apartment Community. The construction of recreational areas such as Boondocks and the adjacent Roaring Springs water park has also increased local traffic density independent of the Interstate construction. The traffic at Locust Grove and Overland often backs up with motorists attempting to turn. This Apartment Community with 300 families would significantly increase local traffic along Overland, particularly at the busy intersection with Locust Grove. Also, the additional 240 school age children right next to this increasingly busy street could provide ample opportunities for tragic accidents. Finally, this increased traffic density could slow response times for police and emergency vehicles for all communities in the affected area. Please address our concerns about how the city plans to deal with the problems of increased traffic density along our local community's major East/West street in order to provide safety for the families and children in our neighborhoods. Police/Fire protection — Even if crime and emergency rates per person remain constant, the almost overnight addition of 300 families will increase the reported incidents in our part of Meridian. This increase would seem to require additional police and fire resources to patrol and handle the increased crime, fire, or emergency problems concentrated in this area. Shifting resources from other areas of Meridian could do this, but would increase response times and decrease coverage in those areas. Another solution would be to increase the department personnel, which would increase city costs. These solutions seem unlikely, given that the Meridian City Council has recently announced budget cuts for the Meridian Police Department. According to a recent article in The Idaho Statesman, Police Captain Dave Bowman is quoted as saying, "We are not keeping up with growth, and in fact, I think we're falling behind" This is the current situation, independent of the additional growth imposed by the proposed Apartment Communitity. Please describe the city's plan to handle the crime, fire, and emergency needs in our local area if this Apartment Community is approved. If additional personnel are planned, please explain where the additional money to fund the increase will come from. Utilities Development along this section of Overland is currently restricted due to lack of access to water and sewer utilities. It is our understanding that new computer models have been run to analyze the planned expansion of the sewer system to accommodate the Apartment Community. We understand that even after the city pays to have a trunk line placed under Interstate 84, the current computer model indicates that there will be areas where the sewer system may back up. Can you explain the city's plan to deal with the water and sewer limitations, or are you planning some other solution for this Apartment Community? Summary — Adding 300 families to a small city can have a major impact on the supporting infrastructure, especially if the addition is concentrated in one area. One way to partially alleviate this impact is to spread out the growth, both m space and time, and try to increase the infrastructure at the same rate as the population. We in Meridian Greens have seen how difficult this is to do with a subdivision of individual homes built up over nine years. While we can understand the city's desire for higher density housing, this project would add an additional 300 families in an area originally zoned for 80 families. These families would be added in the one to two years it would take to complete and populate this Apartment Community. We are deeply concerned about the ability of the City of Meridian to add infrastructure capacity to handle this project. We are also concerned about the cost to the current local residents, both in money and quality of life, to proceed with this project. We want the Council to reject this project until the infrastructure in this area has been developed to handle current requirements as well as an Apartment Community of this size. Thank you for taking the time to listen to and address our concerns in this area.

The proposed site of the subject property is located on the northwest corner of Overland Road and Locust Grove Road and south of I-84. FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page 3 AND DECISION AND ORDER OF DENIAL / SUNDANCE, L.L.C. - PROPOSED SUNDANCE VILLAGE 11 10. The subject property is bordered to the north by Meridian City General Retail and Service Commercial (C -G) zone, and I-84, to the west by Timothy Subdivision and Nine Mile Creek, to the south by Sportsman's Point Subdivision and to the east by Ada County Rural zoning. The city limits of the City of Meridian are adjacent and abut to the north, and south property lines of the subject property. 11. The property which is the subject of this application is within the Area of Impact of the City of Meridian. 12. The entire parcel of the property is included within the Meridian Urban Service Planning Area as the Urban Service Planning Area is defined in the Meridian Comprehensive Plan. 13. The Applicant proposes to develop the subject property in the following manner: by construction and development of 300 units of multi -family rentals including 100 2 -bedroom units and 200 3 -bedroom units. 14. The Applicant requests zoning of the subject real property as Medium High Density Residential District (R-15). 15. Persons who are residents and property owners that reside in the area of the proposed development are concerned with the high density residential development at the location adjacent to the intersection of Locust Grove and Overland Road, which has considerable traffic congestion, particularly at peak hours of the day for commuter traffic with no present plan of the highway district, in FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page 4 AND DECISION AND ORDER OF DENIAL / SUNDANCE, L.L.C. - PROPOSED SUNDANCE VILLAGE 0 • conjunction with the development, to widen Overland or Locust Grove, or to extend Locust Grove over Interstate I-84 to the north of the subject property. They were also concerned about school capacity, safety of additional residents using the existing streets which have no sidewalks, concerns for adequate police and fire coverage, and the impact and compatibility of a high density residential development to the north of their existing low density development. 16. The land mass for the proposed site is 20.35 acres, which as proposed would include 100 two (2) bedroom units, 200 three (3) bedroom units with a density of 14.8 units per acre, with 618 parking stalls and one main entrance onto Overland Road, and an auxiliary emergency entrance on Locust Grove for the entire complex. 17. The proposed development will consist of nicely designed apartment units with just over 51.5% open space which will be nicely landscaped. 18. Overland Road is required to have a minor arterial with a bike lane designation; there was a traffic count of 10,054 vehicles taken on 7-16-98, and the proposed development will have frontage of 620 -feet to Overland. 19. Overland Road is improved with a 2 -lane street section with no curb, gutter or sidewalk abutting the area. Overland Road between SH -69 and Locust Grove is listed as "funded" in the Ada County Highway District's 5 -Year Work Program for 2002.

Lake Hazel Middle School is at capacity and will remain so until the fifth middle school comes on line in the fall of 2000. Meridian High School is also over capacity. 21. The proposed development will house ninety-nine (99) elementary aged children, seventy-five (75) middle school aged children, and sixty-eight (68) senior high aged students. 22. The proposed development, including the construction and occupation of 300 residential units, which will all be required to ingress and egress onto Overland Road, is capable of housing 750 to a 1,000 people. 23. Given the present conditions of public educational facilities in the area, and the present condition of Overland Road as a two (2) lane narrow street, with over 10,000 cars a day in traffic, and the fact that Locust Grove is not a through street to the north over Interstate I-84,the proposed development and zoning at this time is not compatible with the Comprehensive Plan of the City of Meridian, Adopted December 21, 1993, Ordinance #629 January 4, 1994,for the following reasons: 23.1 The allowance of this proposed project is not consistent with the following community values stated as key to the Comprehensive Plan at page 1 therein: 23.1.1 Manage growth to achieve high-quality development. 23.1.2 New growth should finance public service expansion.

CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING: ANNEXATION & ZONING OF 20.35 ACRES (FOR R-15 ZONING) OF LAND FOR PROPOSED 300 UNITS OF MULTI -FAMILY RENTAL FOR PROPOSED SUNDANCE APARTMENT HOMES BY SUNDANCE, LLC—NORTH OF OVERLAND ROAD AND WEST OF LOCUST GROVE: Borup: Staff, do we have any additional staff report. Hawkins: Commissioners, if you recall this project you continued at your July 13 meeting again primarily for sewer reasons. Fortunately, in this instance Brad's report did come back suggesting that the project move ahead. That the sewer capacity in this project should not be a reason to deny it, so there was not a thorough staff report prior. That is what this is, so again, just a quick orientation. The project application before you involves seven different parcels. You've got an existing CG. This sliver across the north piece of the project adjacent to 184 is all ready annexed into the city. We would like to request that all of our staff comments on the 8/24 report be incorporated into your decision. This property is bounded on the northeast by natural gas company which has a two story block building and the majority of it is used for storage and equipment and tools. Locust Grove currently dead ends right here at the overpass of 184. 1 would point out the Ada Planning Association at their last months meeting move the overpass from their long range 20/20 plan to the transportation improvement program. So it is basically a soft planning document to the hard planning document. I can't tell you anymore as far as specific dates, but that is a change as of last month on the overpass. You currently have the Sportsman Pointe Subdivision across Overland on the south and then a vacant piece here across Nine Mile. The project itself as you have in your packets is laid out more or less in this fashion. I won't go into details but will point out a couple of things in our reports as well as the ACHD report has 3 things that are important to point out. One is that they asked the applicant to move their drives about 30 feet from the intersection from where they are proposed. You've got an existing— the main entry here, ACHD suggests 30 feet to the west and then another secondary entry here on Locust Grove which again they suggest 315 feet from the intersection of Meridian Planning and Oing Committee Special Meeting August 25, 1999 Page 33 Overland. That was one of ACHD's. Another one was an emergency drive, which is currently a gravel road here along the north part of the project. The obvious thing to point out here is any kind of future overpass, that emergency access road will disappear. A center turn lane on Overland Road was also requested by ACHD and staff would certainly support that recommendation. Two things to point out, in the staff report itself, the request that they come back and annex rezone that CG portion of the north, that is on page 3 item 1. Page 4, item 5, development agreement we are not suggesting that be a requirement for this project, assuming that you recommend that all the conditions and forwarded on to the Council more or less in its current proposed design. The other point on page 7, item 4,5 and 6 landscape buffers, staff has asked for a 20 foot landscape buffer instead of the 10 shown here adjacent to the natural gas company. We've asked for 35 feet since Overland is an entry way corridor in the Comprehensive Plan -35 feet the full length here on Overland, not just at the entrance. Again on 184 a 35 foot landscape buffer and of course they all ready show this. That was brought up at the previous meeting in terms of the location of this to 184. 1 guess that is it for a staff report right now. Borup: Any Commissioners have any questions for staff at this time? If not, is the applicant here and like to step forward. Cook: Yes I am here and I'd like to step forward. First of all I want to say, I have been doing this for a long time—a lot of Planning and Zoning meetings in my lifetime. Borup: Could you say your name sir. Cook: My name is Peter Cook. President of PSC Development Company. I was very impressed tonight by the way with the comments that were brouigh up. I though they were very detailed and very impressive. Thank you, I think for your service. I'm not doing that with any hope, but I thought is was very nice. And staff, your in the middle of a major problem here with the growth of the city and I think I can sense and feel the pull on that and I also want to thank you. It is hard thing about growth. I brought our whole team here tonight and we've got these great opportunity here to present to you some of the solutions that were—you suggested to us. I think our presentation your hearing tonight will be able to show you those were great recommendations and we've actually adapted move of them. The only other thing that has not been mentioned here—there is an affordable housing slice that we are or would want to develop in our business plan here. We have all ready talked about financing agency about this and they would be very excited to do something on this development with an affordable housing slice. That always gets people nervous and it shouldn't because basically in most cases it will be 60 percent of medium income. I think it is great for the city because one of your points here is the diversity in housing. As you grown and the opportunity for multiply family dwellings gets more and more pressured, rents will increase and this is a great opportunity to preserve it cause as growth comes your going to need people that can afford to live here. Usually I like to do this at the end if there is questions after our great team. Mark Cohen is here, one of my partners, any financial issues, Mike Hall is here Meridian Planning and ring Committee Special Meeting is August 25, 1999 Page 34 and Keith (inaudible). Then I would make the presentation if your to go to that kind of format —not format but we could make that kind of presentation would that be okay. Bennett: We received the staff comments yesterday. My name is Keith Bennett, PSC Development. Working with Brad on those comments, we've tried in the last 24 hours to address them as much as possible to show you that we have no problems with the suggestions that have been made or the recommendations that been made and in fact, maybe that isn't the best way-- There were traffic concerns like Bradley brought up which the previous plan did not address. This one does. For example, Overland Road and Locust Grove were called for to be a full 96 foot right of way and therefore 48 foot half width which we show reflected here as taking in to allow for that widening to allow for the center lane, turning lane on Overland that was a requirement. The distances therefore were not only from the property line but from the proposed new curb line in each direction. The new plan and I have smaller copies to give you, will show that we moved the entry over 317 feet, so it is beyond the 315 that was suggested and provided the 35 foot landscape buffer all the way along both Overland and Locust Grove, full length beyond, not the property line but the new proposed curb line. It is actually 23 feet plus 35 feet for a distance of both frontage streets of the landscaped area. Additionally, along Nine Mile Drain, we have 35 foot set back now shown, 35 foot setback totally across for the buffer on the freeway and the 20 foot setback that the staff recommended along the neighboring property. So each of those have been incorporated into the design. We took the recommendation and knowing now that this is more eminent of the overpass that it doesn't really serve as a secondary exit or an emergency exit, that has been eliminated and would be maintained as open space and therefore this becomes our secondary entry, which is what is what proposed before. The only issue that we have that does not meet full compliance with staff recommendation which I mentioned to Brad, was by widening the street and then (inaudible) on 315 feet, we'd run out of property. We are at 305 still have a 24 foot opening in that road, so we are 10 feet short of meeting the full intent of the report that was given. Maybe, there can be a trade of this land versus gaining a little more property here. I can't commit to that at the moment. This is the boundary of the property as it now stands, which gives us a 305 foot off set off of Overland Road from the new set back line. We have accommodated the parking requirement, the set back requirements, the building are within the limitations of the zone. The densities are below the 15 units per acre that is proposed. The open space is extensive and we have designed it such that we have interior courts that are green and open around the entire space as well as in obviously our landscape buffers all around the entire perimeter. Fencing was brought up as an issue for them. We are proposing a full fence on our side of the creek to keep it safe from the residents and that would be at least 6 foot high, solid vynal fence as well as along the freeway. Other fencing would stay as it with an existing chain link fence. And then no fencing along the frontages. With regard to any of their other concerns, we do not have any. We are willing to follow the staff recommendations implement them into our design. Do you have any questions? Barbeiro: Mr. Chairman. The landscape buffer along Overland and Locust Grove, is that a flat level or is that a birm? Meridian Planning and ping Committee Special Meeting August 25, 1999 Page 35 Bennett: Typically it is per the recommendation of what we need, to meet the requirements of the city standards, be we do like to have some birming and interest to the front, particularly windows become a full 96 foot wide road right of way. Barbeiro So as the plan stands now, it is not a birm. Bennett: I do not have a full landscape plan as of 24 hours ago, I received this, so no our landscape that was submitted previously does not take into the fact that now we have 35 feet to deal with, so we can design that to accommodate that. Barbeiro: Okay. Thank you. Borup: Any other questions? Thank you. Who is next Mr. Cook That is it on your staff? Okay, I thought you had more. Okay, thank you. This is a continued public hearing. Do we have anyone else who would like to stand and testify. Henze: My name is David Henze. I live in Sportsman Point Subdivision. If you remember at the last hearing we had quite a few of us. There is a few tonight also. just have a couple questions, if I might ask. What is the rent that they would expect from this ... The rent level. I did not quite understand what they were talking about, the assisted living or assisted houses that was there. Is this a full rent community? What level is this. That's the questions I basically had. The comments I have on this is, well if you go look at the traffic, which I think is the main issue, the plans that were made to extend Overland to 5 lanes, to put an overpass on Locust Grove. Evidentially a little farther down put an overpass on Linder and also down to Ten Mile with an exchange If you see there is a big need took up both sides of the city. What I have heard from several people I have talked to is that Overland has the potential, one of the worst traffic problems and the estimates right now is about 2005 where that could be extended to 5 lanes. If that is the case, if this goes forward, I would suggest that maybe we don't but the cart before the horse, but we solve the problems (inaudible). The other thing is, if you look and there is—if you can get into Sportsman Pointe off Locust Grove, I think given the corner of Locust Grove and Overland your going to have people cutting through the subdivision. Also there is another issue that I would like to bring up, is if you recently saw Boise and the surrounded areas were routed in the top 20 or top 15 of family and children friendly cities in the U.S. If you look farther into that study, some of the reasons why is because of urban sprawl and more specifically, apartment buildings being built outside of the city. If they want to be friendly to children, the apartment buildings should be built more toward locations where those dwellers are going to be working. That would be more in toward the city and toward business centers. This is a very residential area out here. Lot's of children. I would ask the people to drive through our neighborhood and see this and then go back and take 300 units, this is going to be about 450 cars, I would assume, adding to that. I would say, if your not going to fix the first—I would say, fix the roads first if we are going to go forward, otherwise we take a hard look at this and decide is this the best thing to go into this area. The last thing that I would just say, I have 60 signatures right now. Half the people we talked to we got Meridian Planning andaing Committee Special Meeting 0 August 25, 1999 Page 36 Meridian Greens, Ravens Hill and all these just barely heard about it. We took Sportsman Pointe barely canvassed it. We've got more people that want to sign in, we just did not have the time yet, because they just heard about it. There is 60 signatures here opposing it. Lastly, I'd like to ask, in all seriousness if somebody lived in Sportsman Pointe that was building this project, would they be seriously for this project or not—if they had kids and knowing the traffic that is here. I think you need to think hard about that. I think there is a better place to put this. Maybe across the freeway by some business centers and so on. Thanks. Barbeiro: Mr. Henze. The report prepared by the Joint School District No. 2, the Meridian School District, tells us that this project would produce 99 elementary aged children, 75 middle age, middle age school children and 68 senior high school children. On the assumption that the pre school children would have about 50, they projected 300 children would be in this complex. I am sure that the developer planned it and is aware of that. Certainly, he has designed a complex that is child friendly and child design. Your statements are that it is not and it is (inaudible) and it would cause a problem. Henze: The apartment complex looks very nice from what we are seeing here. What I am saying is the roads outside it are not ready to handle this. It's just obvious that if people can't make that turn on Locust Grove on to Overland, they are going to cut through Sportsman Pointe if there is so much traffic. I don't think just a center turn lane —even before this came in, you can correct me if I am wrong, I heard that Overland was going to go to 5 lanes because of traffic problems. Then that brings up another issue and that is elementary schools with all those kids. Barbeiro: I misunderstood then. Your concern was not the apartment complex— Henze: Not the apartment complex, the traffic around it. Yeah it looks like a nice apartment complex. Barbeiro: It is the cutting through Sportsman Pointe and the fear that the traffic would impact upon the children's life. Okay, thank you. Borup: Yes. Tima: Good evening. My name is Karen Tima and I live in Sportsman Pointe at 2122 Chesapeake. I am here to represent my family who are—we're opposed to this project. We opposed for a couple reasons. Emotionally I am opposed to it like most people because apartment dwellers are typically very trenzie in nature. We worry about the property values. We worry about the people that are going to be living near us that are not the homeowners like we are. That is emotionally and we can't base our decision on our emotion feelings. Factually I am worried about it because of the roads and because of the existing traffic problems out there all ready that is just going to get worse. All ready there are so many approved subdivisions that are still developing out there. We are going to have those influx of people then you add 600 cars all at once and this apartment complex and it just seems unreasonable that that area can take it. Usually, Meridian Planning and Oing Committee Special Meeting August 25, 1999 Page 37 in the mornings when I leave for work, I turn on Locust Grove right on to Overland and get on the freeway. That is usually not too much of a problem because you only have to worry about the one lane of traffic turning on to Overland. Tonight, coming here, it was about 6:30 at night, I had to turn left on to Overland. That was a major problem. I had to worry about both lanes of traffic. It took me 12 minutes, I timed it specifically because I was coming here tonight. I timed it and it took me 12 minutes to turn from Locust Grove on to Overland to come here tonight. This is just going to get worse. I agree with my neighbor that we can not put the cart before the horse. That if we are going to improve the roads and widen them to handle the traffic we should do that first and then look at building a project of this nature. Thank you. Borup: Thank you. Any questions? Next. It seems we are finished with public comment. Applicant like to summarize or Commissioners have any questions or discussion before that comes up? Would you like to address them to them. Hatcher: Mr. Chairman, I do have a question or maybe a clarification from you. When was going through the documentation last, I could have swore I read some documentation that the improvement for Overland Road was bumped up to 2002? Does anybody else know where that documentation is or am I getting my facts mixed up. I read something along the lines— Borup: Did you find it there? Hatcher: Yeah, Tom just showed it to me. Overland Road is improved with the two lane street section with no curb, gutter or sidewalk abutting the site. Overland Road between SH69 and Locust Grove is listed as funded in the district's 5 year work program for 2002. So, it looks like ACHD is all ready implemented the improvement of Overland Road in 2 years. A funded project which means it is a go. Borup: So your saying that maybe the horse is before the cart. Hatcher: What I am saying through design considerations and through permit processes, through construction time that the particular proposed development probably will not even be occupied or occupier until the said time that Overland is also improved. The traffic issue might be a mute issue. Borup: Okay, thank you. Just for the record the quotation that quotation that Commissioner Hatcher read is from the ACHD report on page 2. Would the applicant like to make any final comment? Cook: Mr. Hatcher, I think you (inaudible) on point because I wish I could build it overnight. We are about a year and a half away, I think by the time—construction time—all most two years. That is a very good point. The rental issue—there is some of the things I wanted to tell the property owners. Meridian Planning and Oing Committee Special Meeting 0 August 25, 1999 Page 38 Borup: Mr. Cook, before you proceed there, as far as the city and commission, rental amounts is not a factor and perhaps Mr. Rossman, would you like to expound on that. Rossman: Thank you Mr. Chairman. This is not the first time this issue has come before this Commission. The question of subsidy or source of funding or the type of people that are going to be living in a particular project are not relevant issues for the Planning and Zoning Commission. Their decision is to be based on the project alone, irregardless of how the people are going to fund their monthly rent and if any of those issues come before the Commission or the appearance of that being a issue is put before this Commission, I would prefer that it not even become an issue during this proceeding. Cook: That is a very smart point to make cause you could be judged making a decision— Borup: What we're looking at the project, the layout, the design that's the things that— Cook: Let me just speak to that real quickly and you've had a long night and don't need anymore talk from developers. One thing that I wanted to say is that we own the development, so it is not like we sell this and move on. We have to keep and maintain it. It is one of those things. (Inaudible) has done a great study on —and a lot of the future planning issues on what apartment developments can do and how much green space they can provide and how they can help and be very friendly. The design and look here—this is my bias. I have looked at product—you will not see a product that I've seen yet in the Boise area that will look this good. This will be very outstanding and very well build development. When you see our elevations and renderings, I think you will agree with that. It will be very much of an asset to your community. It will also be a long term opportunity for you to grow with the community. Any questions. Hatcher: I have one question. Do you have available this evening any color renderings of the facility, particularly for the public. Cook: I don't, but give us 2 hours to go color. Hatcher: We have ours in our information. Cook: Do you want us to describe a little bit about that to give you somewhat of a feeling. I think that is important. Hatcher: I don't think that is necessary. I've got a good feel. Cook: It is high end stuff. Are you in the construction business. Hatcher: Yes, I am a licensed architect. Meridian Planning and Bing Committee Special Meeting 0 August 25, 1999 Page 39 Cook: Well then you asked the important question before about stucco and ours is (inaudible). Borup: Mr. Cook. Could you repeat that answer for the record. Rossman: It doesn't get picked up on the microphone, so it needs to be repeated into the microphone. Cook: There will be culture stone veneer and cedar batton board. We will have no synthetic stucco on the project proposed. Barbeiro: Mr. Cook the point that you made about you intend to hold the property, it is customary in many, many large scale apartment complexes to build it quickly, build it cheaply, fill it up and dump it. I use that word openly. It is not your intend to do that. You intend to hold the property as an investment. Cook: Council made me require I can't go into all my financial reasoning behind that, but I will tell you this our profit margin is over the long term haul. By dumping it, we can not sell it especially with the things we want to do. We can not sell it. Our profit is how well we manage it and maintain it over the long period. Barbeiro: Your aware that Mr. Henze brought us 60 signed signatures opposing your project. While it is not left to this commission to tell you what to do, the mirror fact that your going to hold the property would be an item that I would very much impress upon the neighbors because they have all seen built, fill and dump properties in the past. Cook: I have never been in a meeting yet where everybody's has wanted an apartment development. I've—and I feel the pain that people—I've been in every community that you can think of over this issue. I can look at you straight in the face and tell you that we have never—we've gone in sometimes with planning and zoning and city council's having a very difficult time and have shown them over the long period that we have actually changed the viewpoint of that issue. It's—right now you come up on some trailers and what have you and sort of a —this is going to be a green looking very impressive piece of property that will be maintained. It can not—I can feel their pain, but I think that I can tell you that they will see a development that will be very beautiful. I have not seen anything of this caliber as we have traveled through here. I know you are contractors and I may have offended you. Just the outside looks-- I better shut up now. Thank you. Rossman: I don't think Tom has any apartment projects on this agenda at this point. Barbeiro: No we don't do multi housing anywhere. Borup: Any other questions for Mr. Cook? Meridian Planning and laing Committee Special Meeting do August 25, 1999 Page 40 Rossman: I guess Mr. Chairman I still would make one clarification. When I said funding was irrelevant to this issue, I did not mean developer funding was irrelevant. Funding for the rental subsidy for the —the payment of rents by these particular people that would be living in these facilities is a irrelevant issue. The source of the concerns are (inaudible) in the Federal Fair Housing Act, if anybody has particular interest. Henze: A clarification. We have not seen what they look like and I would say that we need to maintain—if you go between Meridian Greens and Sportsman Pointe you have to have certain roof designs between the two so there is continuity. I am only saying I did not understand his first comments he was making. He said were having this apartment complex and then he made some side note about rent (inaudible). I did not understand what he was talking about. The thing is, are we going to have —is it going to look as nice, basically. Rossman: I was not singling you out sir. I was just —the developer did open the issue and I wanted to make that clarification so the record is clear on that. Barbeiro: With regards to the design, I want to ask Mr. Cook if he had some elevations he could provide for the two residents right now so they could see what it is. Obviously, it will not be in color, but--. Also, if I may I wanted to ask staff—Bruce, as far as you know with regards to planning in that area do you know if a stop light there at Locust Grove and Overland. Is that not in the—a part of that 2002 plan. Borup: No it's not or no you don't know? (?): We do not know if it's in the plan to put that stop light in. Barbeiro: Back to Mr. Henze. If a stop light were there at Locust Grove and Overland, would that be enough to alleviate most of your concerns about traffic passing through Sportsman Pointe? Henze: My points on traffic is when it's built let it come—or then we can see it. The point is are we talking about possibilities or solutions. Do we have hard solutions here. Are we talking about maybe this will happen. Borup: Sir it is funded. The money is there. Henze: I also heard it was funded but some of the funds will be taken for the Flying Y. That is why a possibility of— Borup: That's two different entity's. This is Ada County Highway District. Henze: (Off and on inaudible discussion) Regarding the overpass—that was all part of it—we make it better yes. Meridian Planning and Ging Committee Special Meeting 40 August 25, 1999 Page 41 Hatcher: I think what the public needs to know is that the widening of Overland Road to five lanes is a funded project and is scheduled to be built in 2002. ACHD does not apply funds to a project unless it's going to be done, because their very strict with their money. There is always a chance that things get delayed. None of us can prevent that. The way things are set up right now, the way things are scheduled, that road will be 5 lanes in the year 2002. Barbeiro: With regards to the overpass at Locust Grove, that is not in the seven year plan. Borup: It has been included but it is not funded. Just 2 weeks ago. It has been included in the transportation improvement plan. Barbeiro: (Inaudible) Borup: Well it was added to the Ada County TIP, but again no date, but it has been moved up. It is going to be soon than it was. There was one comment on the project itself. Two comments I had. One on the project itself. The elevations we have are probably some of the nicest I think this Commission has seen and the other comment on the density, normally projects request an R-40. This is an R-15. They are not looking at filling up the space and maxing it out. They've provided a lot of open space and I think just by the zoning that they have requested demonstrates that. That was one of the questions they had on the projects without being able to see the whole thing. Commissioners. Any other questions or comments? We have an open public hearing on— Tima: Can I make another comment? I am curious that there is feasibility of doing a study on what impact these additional families will have on the school system and the schools that are currently being fed from that area. Borup: The school has all ready done that. Tima: And what is the results? Borup: There is an impact. They are adding children to the schools. It is on the ACHD report. Barbeiro: Even though we are in a difficult position and need your help in dealing with the impact of growth on schools, we will approve this development. Jim Carbury, Administer of Support Services, Meridian School District. I did say the impact was 99 elementary age students, 75 middle school and 68 senior high school students. Freckleton: Mr. Chairman, members of the Commission. We were just discussing the 2002 five lane improvement. Typically, ACHD will put a project on to the 5 year plan. That doesn't necessarily mean when they say 2002, that that road going to be built in 2002. They go into a design phase. They have land acquisition. Right of way Meridian Planning andaing Committee Special Meeting 0 August 25, 1999 Page 42 acquisition. Then they set a construction schedule. I don't know exactly when it is going to be built but I doubt that the 2002 date that they put in their report is actual constructed. Borup: I think that is accurate that the one difference here is in their 5 year plan, they have funded and unfunded. The unfunded are the ones that really can get pushed back. The one think that is does have in its favor is apparently in the funded category. Freckleton: Right, right. But that is a point that maybe we should clarify through ACRD. Borup: Yeah, that's not saying 2002 instantly going to be there. Freckleton: Additionally, I think that when a road reaches the level of serviceability that it requires 5 lanes, I thin that you can anticipate that signalization at the intersections and especially if we are talking overpass on Locust Grove. Borup: That's what I would expect too. I wish they were here to ask that, but I think that is a good question for ACHD. De Weerd: Mr. Chairman, I was at a meeting just last week that ACHD committed to the City of Meridian that Overland was a priority and that they would meet their plan date if not better it. They do see it as a high priority. In fact, that is why they have taken it off the truck route list. Until those improvements can be made, it's left alone. Borup: Okay. It all sounds encouraging—at least as far as the road. Okay Commissioners. We do have an open public hearing. De Weerd: Mr. Chairman, if staff has no further comment I would move that we close the public hearing. Barbeiro: Second the motion. MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES Borup: Commissioners, what is your pleasure. Barbeiro: Mr. Chairman, I am —1 do not wish to dismiss the 60 signatures and the extensive work that the neighbors have done. I would request that the developer make some efforts to go out into the neighborhood and to address—I believe the signatures are public knowledge now or public record and the developer will have access to those. Is that correct? While we can not require that he send out notes and explanations of the project to each of the signatures, so that each of those people are aware of what the project is. Discussions of what we discussed here today and that you could walk in as a good neighbor as opposed to any sort of adversarial relationship that you may have with the neighbors. Is that a reasonable request. With that I defer to the other Commissioners for any other— Meridian Planning andaing Committee Special Meeting is August 25, 1999 Page 43 Borup: Okay, comments. Barbeiro: I wish to make a motion that we recommend this project with staff comments and request of the developer acknowledge and address these people who have signed a petition and recommend this to City Council. Rossman: Mr. Chairman. If I may make two clarifications. One is I don't believe that your—that was a request that you put into your motion rather than a condition that they contact these people. Barbeiro: I don't believe that we are allowed to do that. Rossman: I would agree. Number two. We are just dealing with Annexation and Zoning at this point. Borup: That was your motion for the annexation and zoning? Barbeiro: Yes Sir. Borup: We have a motion. Do we have a second. Hatcher: I second it. Borup: We have a motion and a second to recommend approval of annexation and zoning. All in favor? MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES Freckleton: Mr. Chairman. Borup: Mr. Freckleton. Freckleton: Sorry to keep doing this. One item on the annexation and zoning that I would like to direct to the applicant is the issue regarding the legal descriptions. Borup: Oh, I wrote a note on that. I am sorry I did not follow through. Go ahead. Freckleton: I would like to get that cleared up before we go to City Council. It just kind of stream lines things through them with no hold ups. The City Attorney wanting to get a hold of me wanting to know if I have received the proper legals, etc. If we can get those ahead of the hearing, it really helps. (Inaudible discussion) l Meridian Planning and&ing Committee Special Meeting August 25, 1999 Page 44 Borup: It is going to be at least a month. Sir you still have one more. We took care of annexation. We still have a conditional use permit. ITEM NUMBER 6: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR 300 UNITS OF MULTI -FAMILY HOMES BY SUNDANCE, LLC—NORTH OF OVERLAND ROAD AND WEST OF LOCUST GROVE: Borup: Staff any additional comments? Hawkins: Request that our previous report be incorporated into this Item. Borup: Thank you. Rossman: Mr. Chairman if I might make one more comment. To clarify whether or not as it relates to Items 5 and 6 whether the previous testimony at the previous public hearing, was there a previous public hearing on this one? That that be incorporated into this preceding. Borup: Do you need a motion to that effect or just a statement Rossman: No, just needs to be put on the record. Borup: Okay. For the record, we wish to incorporate all previous public testimony and comment from previous hearings into tonight's hearing. Thank you. Applicant, would you like to come forward and—again you understood what we just did. The other was annexation and zoning. Before we can do a conditional use permit on property, it needs to be in the city. Cook: Right. That is a good idea. Now we want to talk about the zoning issue. Borup: Well no. We've handled the zoning now we are talking about the project itself. We realize that you have all ready addressed that and the questions have addressed that. I don't know that there is anything new that you have to add, but this is your opportunity. Cook: Yeah, I have extensive notes here on that part! No I don't. Borup: Okay, you did not have anything more on the project then. While you are up here Mr. Cook again this is relating to the previous one, but you understood Mr. Freckleton's question on the legal description for that other parcel. That is also a zoning change on it. Okay, thank you. Any other questions from the Commission. De Weerd: I had some questions about the project itself. Borup: For Mr. Cook? 0 i APARTMENT COMPLEX ON LOCUST GROVE AND OVERLAND IS APPROVED BY PLANNING AND ZONING DATE: September 1. 1999 TO: Homeowners Adjacent to Locust Grove and Overland FROM: Group For Strong Family Neighborhoods RE: Next Steps to Defeat Construction of Apartment Complex On August 25th, the Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission approved a request for rezone on land West of Locust Grove and North of Overland. The Commission also approved a plan to develop a 300 - unit apartment complex on that land. The Following are key points of the meeting: • The Ada County Highway and Sewer Departments gave quick recommendations for the re -zone even when future expansion of Overland is not completely clear. • The Meridian School District recognizes capacity problems and gave a reluctant approval. • The Commission recognized opposition testimony and 60 signatures but still approved the complex. • The Developer set aside a portion of the development for rent -assisted, lower income housing. (The City of Meridian likes the rent -assisted designation because it helps qualifications for federal funds.) • The Developer stated that this will be an "opened space" complex. However 25+ buildings will be constructed on the small parcel of land. The Developer is an astute and smooth talking businessman from Utah. He told us that "he felt our pain." It is now time to let him feel his own pain as we defeat this development as it goes before the city council on September 21, 1999 at $:oo o'clock p.m. The only way we will defeat this future detriment to our neighborhoods is to appear in force at the City Council Meeting. We will need at least 100 people to attend and make our voices heard. We will need to voice alternative solutions and not just complaints. If you want to keep crime low, maintain a family friendly neighborhood, and not lose value on your home, you will need to help. The first priority is to attend. The second would be to sign the petition below. Thank you for your help defeating this development. Even if you signed the last petition, please do so again for the City Council. Please fill out the bottom of this page and return it to Bruce & Edith Waite Dear members of the Meridian City Council. I oppose the construction of the Sundance Apartment Complex that is to be built on Overland and Locust Grove and request that the City of Meridian approves developments that add value to Meridian neighborhoods.

ANNEXATION AND ZONING COMMENTS 1. This Annexation application includes six (6) separate legal parcels under three (3) separate property owners. All properties are currently RT in the County. The northernmost parcel adjacent to I-84 (#S 1118449050 on the legal description map, owned by Idaho King Corp.) has been annexed and zoned C -G and is presently used to display manufactured homes. If the P&Z Commission recommends approval of the annexation and zoning to R 15 for the subject six (6) parcels, the applicant shall be required to submit a formal rezone application for Parcel #S1118449050 from C -G to R-15. New legal descriptions shall be required, one for the rezone parcel, and one for the parcel to be annexed. The new legal descriptions shall be prepared to be adjacent and contiguous to the boundaries of the existing corporate city limits as described in Ordinances 523(1-2-90), 615(9-7-93), 578(6-2-92), and 715(9-19-95). The legal descriptions shall be prepared by a Registered Land Surveyor, licensed by the State of Idaho, and shall conform to all the provisions of the City of Meridian Resolution No. 158. 2. The 4.3 acre parcel abutting the northeast of subject project is owned by a natural gas company and currently used for outdoor equipment and tool storage. There is a two-story, block commercial building on the lot. Bird Dog Lane is a private road off of Locust Grove near the proposed "Secondary Entry" location which services a barn and two moble homes. There is a vacant, two-story house situated at the extreme southeast comer of the site. AZ-99-M/CUP-99-018 Sund&=Apt&AZ.CUP.doc • • P&Z commission/Mayor & Council 08/24/99 Page 4 3. Any existing irrigation/drainage ditches crossing the property to be included in this project, shall be tiled per City Ordinance 11-9-605.M. The ditches to be piped should be shown on the site plans. Plans will need to be approved by the appropriate irrigation/drainage district, or lateral users association, with written confirmation of said approval submitted to the Public Works Department. No variances have been requested for tiling of any ditches crossing this project. 4. Any existing domestic wells and/or septic systems within this project will have to be removed from their domestic service per City Ordinance Section 5-7-517. Wells may be used for non- domestic purposes such as landscape irrigation. 5. Ordinance No. 9-607.F. states that any conditions attached to a Final Development Plan for Planned Development projects run with the land and shall not lapse or be waived as the result of any subsequent change in tenancy or ownership. Therefore, if the Commission intends to recommend approval of the Site Plan to the City Council as more or less represented in this application, staff do not feel a Development Agreement should be a requirement of Annexation. As a safeguard, the Mixed/Planned Use Development district requires CUPs for all future development. CONDITIONAL USE COMMENTS 1. As this property is designated in the Meridian Comprehensive.Plan as a mixed planned use development area, a requirement of the annexation is that uses be developed as a planned unit development under the conditional use permit process. 2. As part of a conditional use permit, the City of Meridian may impose additional restrictions/conditions. 3. On July 19, 1999, the APA Board moved the proposed Locust Grove/I-84 overpass from the Destination 2020 Plan (soft projection) to the Transportation Improvement Lo cult Grove lan (hard planning document). APA projects a dramatic increase in traffic forSou when the overpass is constructed and they support a transportation management plan be developed for this project to coordinate the commuter needs of future residents. 4. The City of Meridian owns and maintains an existing 12" sanitary sewer trunk line along the west side of the Nine Mile Creek. Existing sanitary sewer easements nor the Nine Mile Creek easements have been shown. Please revise the plan to show all existing easements. No encroachments into the existing sanitary sewer easements will be allowed. 5. Results of the Public Works Departments HYDRA sewer analysis indicates that this project should not be denied on the basis of capacity issues. Sanitary sewer service to this site will AZ•99-009/CUP-99-018 SundanceApts.AZ.CUP.doc P&Z Commission/Mayor & Council 08/24/99 Page 5 be via an extension from the existing main adjacent to the proposed development.

Now I have the option of asking you all, would you like to have or would you consent to having both hearings opened up at the same time to save having to go through essentially the same kind of process twice, or is there enough of you that would like to see two separate hearings, and I'll do that by a show of hands, so is there anybody in the audience that would like to see two separate hearings? And I can't see everybody out there, and I'm (inaudible) hear what I'm saying, Is there anybody out there that would object to that procedure? Do I have any objections from the Council? Bird: No. I think it's a great idea. Rountree: Or Mr. Gigray? Gigray: I think it's preferable. Rountree: The last item I'm going to do, is I'm going to open up the agenda at this point in time and take recommendations from the Council on if we will close our consideration of hearings at a certain time this evening. Mr. Bentley. Bentley: Mr. President, as we've done in the past, I think it would be my preference to close the public hearings at 10:30 so we can continue with the rest of our agenda. Anderson: I concur with that. Rountree: Concur that — so for those of you who are hear for another public hearing, we will not open up another public hearing after 10:30. Hopefully we can get through most of them if not all of them, but if we get to a point where it's 10:30 and there's a couple public hearings left, we will reschedule those to our next regularly scheduled meeting. I hope that's not a great inconvenience to you, but really at that point in time, if you're having a public hearing at that time in the evening, you're probably not necessarily getting the full benefit of everybody's thinking processes at that late of time in the evening. 8. PUBLIC HEARING: ANNEXATION & ZONING OF 20.35 ACRES (FOR R-15 ZONING) OF LAND FOR PROPOSED 300 UNITS OF MULTI -FAMILY RENTAL (FOR PROPOSED SUNDANCE APARTMENT HOMES BY SUNDANCE, LLC — NORTH OF OVERLAND ROAD AND WEST OF LOCUST GROVE: (ATTORNEY TO PREPARE FINDINGS) 9. PUBLIC HEARING: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR 300 UNITS OF MULTI- FAMILY HOMES BY SUNDANCE, LLC —NORTH OF OVERLAND ROAD AND WEST OF LOCUST GROVE: (TABLE UNTIL 10/5/99) 9 0 MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 15 Rountree: So with that, I will open up public hearing for the annexation and zoning of 20.35 acres for R-15 zoning of land for the proposed 300 units of multi -family rental by Sundance, LLC and the public hearing for conditional use permit for 300 units of multi- family housing by Sundance, LLC north of Overland Road and West of Locust Grove. To have the applicant here to — Shari, do you want to go first? City staff to make a presentation and will be followed by the applicant. Stiles: President Rountree, Council members, this is for a piece of property located south of 1-84. This location is where the existing Better -Built Homes is, the manufactured homes that's used as the sales lot along the freeway. This is the Playground RV park, across here is the Sportsman Point Subdivision. This is still vacant land at this point here. The Treasure Valley Baptist Church is here. That was an application that you acted on the findings earlier that would have been this piece here where the roofing business and the church is going to expand. There is an application for this property that will be before you in a couple of months. The property is currently zoned R -T. There is a section that is adjacent to the freeway that is zoned C -G. They are requesting a zoning of R-15 to allow for a 300 -unit apartment complex. This will be the location of a future overpass across the freeway, and consideration will need to be made for future right-of-way dedication to allow for that overpass. The applicant has submitted a new site plan, however, I didn't have an 8-1/2 by 11 that I could show you tonight. They have incorporated some of the changes we'd requested as far as additional buffering on the interstate and along Overland Road and showing the fencing details. It also is a little misleading because the application that you have on their site plan that shows that they have open space of 51.5 percent, obviously, that's including the parking lot area, and they need to exclude those areas as part of their open -space requirement. It does appear to meet the requirements of an R-15 should that be your decision to zone it as such. The Nine Mile Creek traverses along here, and they would leave that open with fencing approximately five feet off of the easement line. They're showing a maintenance shed. You all have the elevations in your packets to show what the buildings would look like. Bird: Pull that over a little farther so it shows Locust Grove. How it drops off onto Locust Grove. Stiles: They are showing one access here, I'm not sure if that would comply wirh what Ada County Highway District is requesting or what the future plans for an overpass. They're showing an emergency access in this location, and then just the one access onto Overland Road. Rountree: Mr. Bird, talk in the mike, please. Bird: I'm sorry. Shari, is that enough access for that many planned development? MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 16 Stiles: I don't know if Ada County Highway District has made any comment on whether it's adequate. Obviously this access up here's going to go away once the overpass is there, and I'm not sure that this access is still going to work once the overpass is constructed. I don't know what the future design of that overpass, whether this will still meet the access requirement. I believe the Ada County Highway District counts used vehicle trips per day of about six or seven for an apartment complex per unit. Rountree: Folks, it's going to be a long night. I know how you feel, but — Shari, the parcel on the east, is that one ownership? Stiles: This parcel right here? Rountree: Yes. Stiles: Yes. I believe that is the gas — Rountree: They own all of that. Stiles: -- facility. 2400 additional vehicle trips per day was what the Ada County Highway District report stated. Rountree: Any other comments or questions for Shari? Anderson: I have one. Rountree: Mr. Anderson. Anderson: Shari, that emergency access, is that through the existing mobile home or manufactured home sales that's along the freeway, or where is that where they get in that from? Stiles: It would be the existing entrance that's — Anderson: So would that manufactured home sales go away or they would be driving through their car lot? Stiles: It would go away. Their property — the proposal and the conditional use permit goes clear to the Interstate 84 right-of-way. Anderson: Are there any improvements that are planned along the Nine Mile drain other than just a fence? • MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 17 Stiles: They haven't indicated anything. They are showing some landscaping, fencing and landscaping. They're not showing a pathway. Rountree: Any other comments? Any other questions for Shari or our other staff members? Audience Member: I have one. How many — Rountree: No. Please, the Council gets to ask the questions. Stiles: I'll answer that. Rountree: Go ahead. Stiles: The letter we got from the school district said that "these homes, when completed, will house 99 elementary -age children, 75 middle -school -aged children, and 68 senior -high -aged students. Even though we are in a difficult position and need your help in dealing with the impact on growth on schools, we will approve this development," and it's signed by Jim Carberry, Joint School District No. 2. Rountree: Thank you, Shari. Anderson: Thank you. Rountree: You through? Stiles: Yeah, I'm done. Rountree: Now, is the applicant ready to make a presentation? Cooke: Thank you. Rountree: If you'd introduce yourself; name and address. Cooke: My name is Peter Cooke. I'm from Salt Lake City, Utah. Tonight what we'd like to present is the overall view of how we see this development, and we'll have first that presentation. I've also brought with us with (inaudible) some of the developments that we're doing, and we'll get into that discussion about how, in each case, on every development we've done, and the last two where we have major enhancement of the areas we've been in, including a development where we own the total side, and we will be developing homes around this about a quarter of a million to over $800,000 homes. I know there's been some question whether — how this impacts the community, and MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 18 we'll talk a little bit to that. So I'd first like to ahave Keith give you a presentation of the site plan and how it'll look, and we can go from there. Bennett: Okay — Rountree: If you'd introduce yourself and please use the mike. Bennett: Keith Bennett with PFC Development, and I'm here to discuss the portion of the plan that deals with the site plan, and then we'll go to other issues. Basically, we worked with the planning staff on the development of this site and came to the Planning Commmission and incorporated all of the recommendations and requirements that they brought to our attention in the Planning Staff Report. Some of that is where on Overland Road and Locust Grove Road in the master plan development in the long- term of the city, both streets would be widened to a 96 -foot right-of-way, 48 -foot center line -of -road easement which would require, number one, that both streets, at the staffs request, would be planned to accommodate that extra width to begin with. In conjunction with the traffic report and requirements that they placed on the first review, we responded as well and the desires that they had to not only show the street as an improved intersection to its full width on both sides, but also to bring in the main entrance at least 315 back from the new proposed intersection widths and additionally the secondary entrance, which is what they required as well, coming up on LoCL'st Grove which is well back from the freeway that would be able to be maintained. Since the plan that was shown in the overhead, it was also shown in the Planning Commission, that the emergency exit that we initially showed would not be used because of the projected overpass on the freeway. So we responded to that showing that as not being access and doing the two accesses as was indicated by the Planning Staff Report. Additionally there were concerns of keeping proper setback and open space for the overall site, and this site compared to the previous one, again, we responded by bringing in a 35 -foot landscape buffer including — which includes the Nine Mile drain as a 35 -foot buffer back, a 35 -foot buffer along the entire 1-84 corridor, a 20 - foot buffer along the gas company's property, and then additionally 35 feet back from the widened width of both streets as well, giving us the buffer all around that was required by staff, and we responded to that. The site itself is made of 25 12-plex buildings. They're organized in groups of two and three bedrooms with two floors of three-bedroom units and one floor of two-bedroom; the two-bedroom being on the top decreasing the mass. And we can show that in elevations later. Basically, these units then give 100 two-bedroom units and 200 three-bedroom units is our mix for a tutal of the 300. We're proposing major entry feature that would come into a clubhouse with the ammenity package of pools and spas, the sports court, and then by maintaining the entire interior core as green open space. Now, why bring up this — this is the landscape architect's rendering of the site. It is also responding, we have given those plans to the staff of the tree requirements, and they're proper (inaudible) to meet full requirements of the landscape requirements on the interior of the site, but what you see is a major MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 19 interior green space that is shared by all. And when we calculate the acreage and break down the building area, the parking area, which is not part of the open space, and the building area, we come up with 52 percent that is just green; that is not building, not asphalt, not parking, so we have over 50 percent of the site as green, open space. The idea was to really do something that could make a difference in apartment living that would be attractive for people to want to be here; be part of the community, be neighbors, and be happy to live here versus anywhere else. And we have proposed in your packets, as you have, the elevations that use stone and cedar siding and articulating the massing with balconies and entryways that respond to a project that has a richness to it and a character to it that would become an attractive area for everyone. *** End of Tape 1, Side 1 *** We're only at 14.8 units per acre. We could ask for 30 units per acre, the R-30, but with R-15, we're at 14.8, so we're less density than could have been asked for for this site, and the parking is handled with at least two styles per unit, and all that being off-street so there's no parking counted for the street. Basically, should we go into the renderings and the buildings? We have boards that show a similar project. Rountree: Excuse me, Keith. If you could kind of walk those by here. My old eyes can't make out those — Bennett: Do you want me to stand in the middle, do you think? Rountree: If you could maybe bring them up here to where we could see them and then maybe get them to where the audience could see them. Bennett: Okay. You do have them in your handout. (inaudible) hold that one right there. Turn to that page. I don't know — it's about half way into the book. Rountree: You might just set that up folded up for the audience to see. Bennett: Do you want me to address — them or you? Rountree: No. They're going to want to see as well. Bennett: Okay. This is a project that we're developing in Utah in the mountain area near Park City, and I wanted to carry that same kind of theme and feel into this project as well. The project is called Todd Hollow, but the elevation is shown here with some of the aesthetics of what we're looking at; the massing is 2-1/2 story. It's in the 35 -foot limit of the height of the building that meets the current zoning codes with one-half level down so that we have a 2-1/2 story elevation. The first level having a canopy element that brings the elevation down, a roof element that uses architectural -grade asphalt MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 20 shingles, and then having cedar siding, board and bath as well as having shake ciding with stone venier on the columns and the entries as well as a log look to bring a peel of a rural element to the site and not using stucco materials, et cetera, that other apartments have done, and we've done in the past. This is trying to be warmer. We've probably used earth tones and greens and have a feel of the mountains come down to the valley and creating an ambiance there that can really set this community apart and be unique and be an exciting place to be, a destiny to be — a destination to be instead of just another community. This has the feel that we want to bring of the log look and the mountain look back to the valley and bring in landscaping that could respond to that and have a richness of the community there. We have tried in all of this to meet the entire requirements of the Staff Report; we have no objections to the Staff Report; we have responded in all the requirements that the staff has asked for on the site plan and in the design of the layout to meet their requirements and ask for your approval of this because it is going to be an exciting place to live. Cooke: One last question — Rountree: Get you on the mike. Cooke: A question that came before was do we own these, and do we keep them, and do we maintain them. And we do. It's not one of those where you sell off of our development agreement requires us to be there and maintain those and keep those for the — actually our developer (inaudible) comes from that, so it's important for us to keep the development moving and working and being successful. We do feel like this property has its (inaudible) Planning and Zoning meeting that this is good use for this property right next to the freeway, as the Planning and Zoning agreed; it'll buffer the community from the industrial as it's near there. We also felt, really important for us to -- Brian loved it, but we have not seen a development of this quality around. I said we haven't seen in this area or in Boise or in any of the areas a project of this quality, and we really feel that the openness and the green space will enhance the community and be a very positive feel as you move forward and grow. I think the issue is that, obviously, a lot of development's going to stop because the sewerability, which we were able to meet that requirement, and we're very excited about obviously the expansion and the road to be able to have their access and bring those from both sides of the freeway over, so we're excited to hear everybody's comments and we'll go from there. Bird: Mr. President. Rountree: Mr. Bird. Bird: Would you have him re -identify himself? Cooke: My name is Peter Cooke. MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 21 Bird: Thank you. Rountree: Thank you. Council, any questions of the applicant? Bentley: I have one. Rountree: Mr. Bentley. Bentley: I don't have a question of the applicant at his time. I wonder if it wouldn't be better to use the big mike over there at the table so maybe they can hear better. Rountree: Yeah. That one does not have — is not hooked up to a speaker. Cooke: Should I go through what I just went through? Rountree: No, that's fine. Bentley: Could we get someone to move that over there? Bird: Mr. President. Rountree: Mr. Bird. Bird: This is the latest site plan that has been submitted to the staff? Bennett: This is the site plan that was submitted to the staff prior to the, or with the Planning Commission, and this is the site plan that the Planning Commission approved. Bird: Okay. Thank you. Rountree: Are there any other questions for the applicant? Do you have anymore to present at this point? Okay. Thank you. Having the presentation from the applicant and the staff, we'll now have an opportunity for testimony from the public. Probably do the easy thing here first. A sign of those who are wanting to offer testimony in favor of this proposal. Bennett: They must all be in the hallway. Rountree: They must all be in the hallway. Bird: They're all lost. i MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 22 Rountree: Okay. Thank you. Now, again, I would request that we're going to open up the testimony for those who are opposed. I will recognize those individuals, have you come up here, you need to give your name and your address, and then offer your testimony and try to keep it within that three minutes, and try to keep from repeating too many times. If you all want to testify, we're going to be here awhile tonight, so let's get going. Let's just start up front here, and I'll choose back and forth. If this gentleman wants to testify first, thank you. And Glenn, let's get that microphone over there. Bird: Just pull the whole stand over there. Sloan: Thank you. My name is Mike Sloan. I live at 794 East Martinique Drive in the Meridian Greens apartment complex. I have a couple things I'd like to present to Council. I've been asked to represent many of the neighborhoods in the area that's affected by this apartment complex (inaudible) petitions that we have signed. We have in excess of 800 petitions signed here, and I'd like to get these entered into public record if I may. Rountree: If you'd get those to the City Clerk. Point of clarification: 800 petitions or 800 signatures? One petition? Sloan: Sorry. Eight hundred signatures all voicing opposition to this project. I've also been asked by the Meridian Greens Homeowners Association to officially present to the Council a statement of concerns that we have. Again, I'd like these documents entered into the public record, and I would like to go briefly go through the top concerns. Rountree: Fine. If you want to turn them in now or when you're through. Sloan: Our top concerns that we have listed there are all dealing with our public infrastructure system. The top three that I'd like to talk about are public schools, automobile traffic, and police and fire protection. As has already mentioned, we're going to have an influx of approximately 240 students into our neighborhoods, and this is going into an area where the public schools are already at capacity or over capacity. This has been reviewed a great deal, so we don't need to go into much detail, but we understand that new schools are going to be opening soon, and yet these schools are going to be located far across town, and we don't understand the plan for how this increase to the public school system is going to be addressed. So that is our first concern. Our second concern is automobile traffic. Traffic on Overland has increased dramatically over recent months. This is due to the construction on Interstate 84 and also the addition of new recreation areas such as Boondocks and the water park that's there. Overland is a very dangerous road at this time, and we understand that there is a project to widen the roads, but this is not scheduled for completion until 2004 which is well beyond the timeframe for the completion of the proposed apartment community. The traffic at Locust Grove and Overland and at the entrances of several of the MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 23 subdivisions often back up which creates a very dangerous situation, and this apartment community with 300 more families would undoubtedly increase to that, as we've heard, to the tune of 2400 more car trips per day. As I said, Overland is a very dangerous road already. The added traffic could easily provide ample opportunities for many tragic accidents. Finally, the increased traffic density could slow response times for police and emergency vehicles for the community, and we'd like to hear how the increased traffic will be addressed so that we don't have any public safety problems. The third concern that we have is for police and crime prevention. Assuming a crime and emergency rates per person remain constant, the rapid addition of approximately 1,000 people will increase the number of reported emergency incidents into our part of Meridian. This increase will undoubtedly require additional police, fire and other resources to patrol and handle the emergency problems concentrated in our area. And given the recent announcements for budget cuts for the Meridian Police Department, this seems like a very immediate problem. On the subject of the police budget, Meridian Police Captain Dave Bowman was recently quoted as saying, and I quote, We are not keeping up with the growth. In fact, I think we're falling behind." This is a current situation independent of any additional growth. We need to hear how our police and fire protection is going to be addressed given this proposed growth. So, a summary of adding 300 families to a small city can have a major impact on supporting infrastructure, especially if the addition is concentrated on one area over a short period of time. One way to partially alleviate this impact is to spread out the growth, both in space and time and to try to increase the infrastructure at the same rate as the population is increasing. We at Meridian Greens are deeply concerned about the ability of the City of Meridian to add infrastructure capacity to handle the Sundance project. We're also concerned about the cost to the local residents and our safety, the money and the quality of life to proceed with this project. We request that the Council reject this approval for this project until the infrastructure in this area has been developed to handle the requirements necessary for the planned growth. Thank you. Rountree: Folks, if you'll applause for every one of you, it's just time against testimony. hate to keep grinding on it, but it's a long night. Any questions for Mr. Sloan? Bird: I have none. Rountree: (inaudible) Ma'am. Question? Do you want to speak? Oh. You broke it. Now you have to buy us one. Martell: My name is Marian Martell and I live at 2534 South (inaudible) Falls in Meridian Salmon Rapids Subdivison which Salmon Rapids lies along Locust Grove. From what I am hearing, to accommodate this complex will require enlarging both Overland and Locust Grove. I am deeply concerned about the enlargment of Locust Grove. This will have a horrible impact on all our homes. It will take our common area away, all our landscaping, it even is cutting into the yards of three people in our 9 0 MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 24 subdivision. It is absolutely horrendous. We moved here to be in the atmosphere we enjoy, not to be in the middle of a metropolitan area. And most of the people who have moved here, these are not beginning homeowners. These homeowners are some people retiring, some people still working, but these are final homes for many people. We don't want to see our area impacted in the way it's being impacted with these things that are going on. I haven't heard a hearing, I haven't heard anything given to the people to have anything to say about the enlargement of Locust Grove which does have horrendous impact on the homeowners along Locust Grove. We are disturbed about the quality of life changing. We are disturbed about the traffic, of course. We're disturbed about the lowering of property values which will happen if you change this area to a high-density area. We moved here because it is a low-density area, and respectfully request that the members of the Council keep their obligation to the taxpaying residents who live here. Thank you very much. Rountree: Please. Please. (inaudible) Bentley: If I may respond to (inaudible) is in regards to Locust Grove and Overland Road, those have both been scheduled and planned out to be widened out for many years. As most of you know we have a very poor north -south flow for traffic. The plans are for (inaudible) Locust Grove as well as Linder, and hopefully the Ten Mile interchange. Because we've got east -west flow, but we definitely do not have north - south and Locust Grove, even before it was subdivided with these subdivisions out there has always been planned out to be widened out, so this isn't something new because of this project. Thank you. Jarvis: Mr. President, members of the Council, my name is Scott Jarvis. I live at 2048 East Three Bars Drive in the Las Alamedos Subdivision. My family and many o{ my neighbors and I are opposed to the 300 -unit apartment complex that's being proposed for the corner of Locust Grove and Overland. We presented over 800 signatures of nearly 1,000 homes in the immediate area that would be affected by this development. Last week my neighbors and I have gathered just over 110 signatures just from our subdivision and the neighboring subdivisions alone. Like my neighbors before me, we do not believe the infrastructure presently exists to support the nearly 1,000 people that will live in this complex. With this complex at full capacity, the population of Meridian will increase by nearly three percent overnight in a very small geographical area. Some of the primary concerns we have, like have been expressed by others, is traffic. The ACHD says a widening of Overland Road is not planned until at least 2004, so nearly five years away. During peak traffic hours, Overland's an extremely busy road. If there's any kind of backup — especially if there's any kind of backup on 1-84, it's used as an alternate thoroughfare. Adding 500 cars to the mix during peak traffic hours coming and going to single location will create major problems. New residences develop new traffic patterns. If you're trying to get into this proposed complex turning left to cross Overland Road, you'll have traffic backing up all the way to Meridian Road as people 9 i MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 25 wait to be able to turn. Without additional traffic lanes or turn lanes due for almost five years, Overland Road will become a virtual parking lot. We're concerned about the schools as mentioned before. All the Meridian schools are presently at or over capacity. Any children in this complex will (inaudible) need to be bused nearly across town. We're concerned about what this'll do to the quality of the schools and the education our children will be receiving in an already crowded school system. We're concerned about fire and safety, especially given the fact that the ability to get in and out of this complex seems to be pretty restricted with a single primary entrance. There are no sidewalks along the street. If people want to walk along the sidewalk to get to Boondocks or anything, they have to cross an extremely busy street, especially when the street's widened. There are no sidewalks, there are no crosswalks, there are no street lights. It's an extremely dangerous way for 1,000 people to cross if they wish to take a walk or to get across the street. Summary: adding 1,000 residents to our neighborhood will have a major impact to the area. I want to get it clear, we're not anti -growth. We're for growth if it's done in an intelligent planned way that won't adversely affect the quality of our life, and we recommend — strongly urge to Council not to approve this. Rountree: Any questions for Scott? Bentley: I have none. Bird: I have none. Rountree: Over here, ma'am. Babbitt: My name is Freda Babbitt. My address is 2570 South Locust Grove Road. I've lived on South Locust Grove Road for 35 years. In that 35 years, until last year, that road was never even paved except for the first time it was paved which was 20 years before. Now you're telling us that we're going to add 300 more people, 300 more units or over 1,000 people down at the end of South Locust Grove. It's a dead-end. There is in the five-year plan a plan to go over the freeway. That five-year plan doesn't mean it will be done in five years. It can be ten years until that overpass is put in. All this time, this traffic is going onto Overland Road. You, at this point, during the morning rush hour, traffic is tied up for almost a mile on Overland Road. You can't get in and out without sitting in line for sometimes 15 minutes. This is a rural area; it's always been a rural area. We do not need this type of density. Right now you've got (inaudible) on Overland, you've got the Coke plant, you've got a church. Those are good uses to put between Overland and the freeway because there isn't a type of density of cars, of families. You're still getting your tax dollars from all those businesses that are over there. So it's still going to benefit the City of Meridian. It's zoned R -T right now, and I take it that means commercial. Can you tell me what the R -T rating is? Rountree: It's rural transition and it's in the county. MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 26 Babbitt: So it isn't even in the city limits at this point and that's what we're talking about. All of the subdivision, Las Alamedos, when it was put in, it was put in as R-4, all of the other subdivisions are R-4 to keep the density down, and that was fought for and won here at Council Meeting because they wanted to go to higher density than some of these other areas. We don't want the higher density. We do not want R-15. It's too many people in too small of an area. Thank you. Rountree: Any questions? Rasmussen: My name is Sonya Rasmussen. I live at 1395 East Peacock. I'd like to start out by saying that I participated in the comprehensive planning workshop last week and thought that there were a lot of committed community members who felt like I did, and that is that Meridian is growing too fast. We were concerned about the roads, schools and lack of parks. I feel that we are giving thoughtful input into the new comprehensive plan in hope that you, the City Council, will follow what the public has outlined and what will be the new comprehensive plan and will not be persuaded by developers to change these plans. I was also on the Meridian School District Boundaries Committee. We worked hard and anguished over the growing number of developments that were in the planning stages. We realize that the new schools that would be opening next fall would be opening too close to capacity. We could not offer much relief to many of the existing over -crowded schools. The City of Meridian cannot handle the current growth rate. The schools and the roads are in jeopardy. I mcved hear a year and a half ago from a city that was close in size to Meridian. It grew so fast that the home prices soared. Before long, there were no homes affordable to young families starting out and trying to make ends meet. So the City built apartments. They felt this was a solution to the problem. You can build the most beautiful apartments with the best materials, but you cannot control who lives in them. Even though these were very nice apartments, crime and drugs in the area went up. The police often stated that the result of the crimes were from tenants of the local apartments. We live three miles away from numerous apartments, and my family and surrounding neighbors were burglarized several times in the last two years before we moved here. The City should have built affordable starter homes so families could pride in ownership. I urge that you provide people with the opportunity to afford their own homes so they will be able to make a commitment to our community and schools. I know what I'm asking is not cost- effective and that everything comes down to money. But isn't Meridian worth it? I know the proposed apartment complex will not increase the quality of life here in Meridian. It will decrease it. I feel very strongly that we need to make Meridian a city that we can be proud of 20 years from now; I can look back and be proud of it. At the August 25th Planning and Zoning meeting, Peter Cooke, the developer of the proposed apartment complex said he would provide names and numbers of his other apartment properties to those who had signed a petition prior to the meeting. We were supposed to be able to contact other compexes he built so we would be reassured that he was maintaining his • 0 MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 27 properties. Because he did not follow through on this agreement, I question if he will follow through on his commitment to maintain this apartment complex on Overland and Locust. He also stated that night that he could feel our pain. I ask you, the elected City Council members, to vote no on this apartment complex and let Peter Cooke feel the pain. Thank you. Rountree: Folks. I'm going to ask you one last time, and then I'm going to close the hearing. We've got to keep control of this. I know you all are very emotional about this. We need to hear what you have to say, and your applause don't help, and it takes away from time, please, please, I ask you. Over here. McCoy: My name is Barbara McCoy. I live at 1692 Sportsman in Meridian. When my husband and I moved to Sportsman Pointe a year ago, we were very attracted to the area. The subdivision and surrounding area seemed very well planned out with nice subdivisions, well kept yards and low -traffic commercial buildings along the Overland Road next to the freeway. If the (inaudible) live in. When we were notified of the proposed 300 -unit apartment complex to be built on the corner of Locust Grove and Overland, we were very concerned about the effect (inaudible) have on our neighborhood. I testified at Planning and Zoning that it just didn't seem to fit in with the surrounding area because there were no other apartment complexes in that area. Other people testified of their concerns of crime, traffic and burden on the schools. Well, as you know, Planning and Zoning has approved the change, and as you've heard, it's been mostly concern about the apartment complex, but not the surrounding area. According to Tammy DeWeerd, her reasoning was because of the high-quality of materials, the construction materials, and the developer is going to work with him. But what about the area of the people that are already there? There's been no concern about the compatibility of the area or what the effects that it would have on our property values. Let's see. We've already talked about transportation that there's been no concern about the future plans for that. Because of our frustrations over the lack of responsiveness of Planning and Zoning, which I would have to say is zoning and not necessarily planning, a neighbor and I attended the recent comprehensive plan workshop. One of the issues that was brought up by other people at the workshop was that Meridian should have a variety of land uses, but that the land uses should be planned so they are compatible with the surrounding areas. They shouldn't have to (inaudible) rather than devalue the existing properties. Others in Meridian agree with our contention. Another issue is (inaudible) brought up at the meeting was that Planning should ensure adequate public services including transportation. This was certainly not considered fully during the Planning and Zoning votes. At the workshop, a current land -use map for the Meridian impact area was shown, and I have a copy here of the relevent area, and currently the land -use map, which is not the zoning map, but it's the land -use map that should be — that's being used in the comprehensive planning process, it shows that every impact area south of the area is either low-density housing which (inaudible) are last, and as we heard previously, this apartment complex is 14.5 i 0 MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 28 units per acre rather than less than five. There's also commercial along the freeway, one small industrial section along the freeway or agricultural transition. And the current spot, as we've heard, is high-density housing; 14.5 per acre. I asked, think her name is Shari from Planning and Zoning, where the nearest high-density land use was from our area. She looked at the map and said Rose Park, which I believe is on Franklin Road; the other side of the freeway, clear across the freeway. No one in their right mind, I believe, really cares for the value and integrity of our community would want a high- density apartment complex in an area such as Locust Grove (inaudible) such an area of low impact and very well planned out community that's very attractive for people and high values. Apartment complexes have (inaudible) but let's not make rash decisions just for the developer's sake. If Planning and Zoning doesn't want to consider appropriate land use, they make (inaudible) and put something in just for the developer's sake rather than look at the surrounding area. Apartment complexes do have their place, but let's use the (inaudible) map and do some planning for the future. Let's find places where apartment complexes and has the value rather than ruining the surrounding area. Thank you. Rountree: Any questions? Bird: I have none. Rountree: The gentleman in the back. Scott: Mr. President, members of the Council, my name is Dan Scott. I live at 1629 South Labrador Plaza. I moved into my residence in March of this year. My residence backs up to Locust Grove, so I'm all familiar with the traffic. What I want to address is the crime problem which we're going to be looking at. I'm a retired police officer. I was a police officer for 22 years. I was raised in a town in central California that was about he size of Meridian, 20,000 that it just exploded, and the services didn't keep up. I can tell you from my personal experience that your police department is going to running their tailends off as this area grows if you don't keep up. I have no problem with the widening of Overland. I think they could do that tomorrow and it would satisfy me. But all the pretty pictures in the world in Park City, Utah don't mean diddley squat to me down here in Meridian, Idaho. I moved here because of the low density, because it is an area that's clean, and because I can drive down any street in Meridian and Boise and not see one sign of graffiti, and you don't know what that does for me coming from where I came from. But, I can attest to what's going to happen. I understand that part of this project is going to be dedicated to low-income, and my experience and our experience in the city where I worked as a police officer was it starts out that way, then, boom. Because nobody else wants to move into them per se, the whole thing goes Section 8, and the next thing you know, you've got — you know, we're in and out of there all the time. Point of fact in this, I was medically retired due to two back injuries sustained within 60 days in the same apartment complex in disturbances, in fights. And MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 29 these are common. And people would call for service, and you're going to experience it here, believe me, if you let this explode, you're going to feel it. We couldn't handle regular calls. All we handled were emergency calls. Friday night, Saturday night, Sunday night and Monday night, it didn't matter what night of the week, we ran 24 hours a day back to back, and if you had a traffic accident, you didn't get a police officer unless there was an injury involved, and I don't think that's what you want in Meridian. I know it's not what I want in Meridian. That's — you know, I moved here because my ex-wife moved here, and I came because my kids were here. And I found what I think is a jewel in Meridian. I'd like to see it stay that way. I think the zoning along the freeway should remain commercial. I think there's already commercial establishments there. I think, you know, with the overpass there, even with the widening of Locust Grove and Overland is going to be one hellascious traffic problem with just two entrances in and out of this place, and all the pretty talk and all the pretty pictures in the world aren't going to change that. And when you start having fatalities out there, then you're going to realize it. Thank you for your time. Rountree: Thank you. Ma'am. Develle: My name is Robyn Develle. I'm at 1878 East Doberman Drive in the Raven Hills Subdivision. I would just like to address, again, the issue of the subsidized housing and ask you to please take a look at what happened with the Blue Willows Apartment Complex on State Street. You know, miss, and I forgot your name, but you chuckled when this gentleman mentioned that the whole thing would go to subsidized housing, and that would be low-income. I saw you. And I can attest to the fact that my friends were scared to death when their apartment complex started being a lot of low-income families and subsidized housing. We saw it in kids running around unsupervised all the time. The apartment complex became over -run with unsupervised children. Number one, it's just an added crime problem, and then, two, they were coming over to my house when they were scared to death as meth labs began to be noticed in those apartments and being disassembled. So, I would just encourage you guys, please, take a lesson from that. I hope, you know, I only had heard rumors of the subsidized -income housing, but I would hope that it's not true or that you'll reconsider that. Thank you. Rountree: Thank you. Sir. Excuse me for pointing, but I've got to get to you some way. Kohli: My name is Akash Kohli. I live at 2095 South Elkhound in Sportsman Pointe. I'm concerned about the safety and the — Rountree: Excuse me, Akash. Could we have you spell your last name, please. Kohli: K -o -h -I -i. Rountree: Thank you. MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 30 Kohli: Increased traffic will make the Overland Road there very dangersous. I'm concerned about the safety on the road. What I want to emphasize is that at least on the Overland Road, if you look between the Meridian Road and the Five Mile, it is a two- lane road with no median dividers. Unfortunately, this increased traffic will result into higher frequency of accidents. And I'm afraid some of these will be fatal. I'm told this infrastructure is in place. I suggest we put this project on hold Thank you. Rountree: Thank you. Sir. And while he comes up, I'll remind those waiting to testify, remember to try to keep it to three minutes and try to keep from repeating things that have been said. Nowell: I'll make this extremely brief. Rountree: Super. Nowell: Mike Nowell and I'm the president of the Hunts Bluff Homeowners Association. I've not spoken to one person who, in our subdivision, that's in favor of this compex. Just want to let you know that. All of the points that have already come up here tonight are the reasons. I'm not going to bring them all up again — Rountree: Thank you. Nowell: -- but I do have in my mind the picture of the vast majority of 240 students waiting for buses at that intersection. I think that's wrong. Thank you. Rountree: Could you let me know the subdivision again? Nowell: Hunts Bluff. Rountree: Hunts Bluff. And you represent the — Nowell: Homeowners Association. Rountree: Okay. Thank you. Anybody down on the side of the wall? Anybody back there? Oh. Right here. I missed you before. Come on up. We don't have any doors, but come on down anyway. Campbell: My name is Gary Campbell. I'm at 1682 East Time Zone in Los Alamedos Subdivision, and I didn't plan to say anything. I just came to observe tonight, but as I'm observing these proceedings, one thing comes to mind here. This man is obviously very successful. He'll be successful somewhere else. Perhaps he can be successful somewhere in our neighborhood or in our area that is appropriate. But by the numbers MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 31 that I see here, the people who are here think that this project is not something that we want to do, and we're the ones who are going to stay here and live here, and he's going to go back to Utah, and I doubt ever that he will ever come back here and see if these buildings are painted or that the houses are taken care of or that the cars, who we are required in our neighborhoods to keep in garages. This man's neighborhood is going to have cars all over outside. The next point is, I don't think the City or we, as a community, are going to be hurt by changing this and turning this over to something that has a different tax base, like businesses. I know that I've looked at that property and have made an offer on part of that property to put my business there, and I live just a few blocks away. That property could be turned into something that businesses who are owned by local people could be there, and it would also create a tax base that would help the community without having this problem being caused. Thank you. Rountree: Thank you. Over here? It's this side's turn. Diffendaffer: Good evening. My name's Brian Diffendaffer. I'm building a house at 2676 Velvet Falls in Salmon Rapids. Most of the people that have been up here to talk to you tonight have done an elequent job expressing our concerns. I would like to challenge the developer about the scale of the buildings on his drawings; I'd also like to point out to the Council when they're looking at these pretty pictures, that a lot of them are renderings and just someone's fantasy. Couple of the things I've picked up here as we've gone along. One of the things that the developer has done is created a main entrance there. I can't tell from the map, but I can tell you it's not very far, less than 1,000 feet, I'm sure, from the intersection. The major artery into and out of the development, next to what will be an intersection. I don't know how the County's going to handle it, but I seriously doubt that you'll be able to turn left there. Most of the cars would have to turn right and travel back up Overland into Meridian to get onto the freeway. We need to realize, too, that the Eagle Interchange is a very heavily used interchage: 2400 cars a day there aren't going to help anything. Mr. Cooke has made a promise that he wouldn't sell the development. But it's verbal to us only. It really has no meaning. I'm sure he's an astute businessman, and if it benefitted him to sell the development should it go into decline or for whatever reason, he wouldn't hesitate to do so. I think that's all I've really got to say. Thanks for your time. Rountree: Over here. See a hand? Yes, sir. Dodett: Hello. I'm Scott Dodett. I live at 1391 East Griffen in Sportsman Pointe. I have a lot of comments, but most of them have been fed, but one year ago and 19 days, I remember exactly what I was doing. I was rushing home because my wife got in a bad accident right there at that intersection. I saw my truck before I saw my wife, and I was extremely worried. She was stopped for traffic on Overland Road going into the playground area, the RV park, for a car in front of her turning left. Somebody came up from behind her and rear-ended her throwing her car, our truck, into the truck in front of MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 32 her. Like I said, I saw the truck before I saw her. And verbally over the phone, I knew she was okay, but not after I saw that truck. Another 15 minutes for the traffic in that, finally saw her and everything calmed down. But I got a lot more gray hairs just seeing that truck. And 2400 more vehicles in that intersection a day is going to be horrendous. It's going to be bad. Ada County Highway District went ahead and made Overland Road a designated truck route just about a month ago. A couple weeks ago, they also passed their yearly budget. It has zero money for expanding Overland Road. I wish I had the quote on who said this, but somebody in the Council or in the Highway District said it is politically incorrect to have any funding for expanding the roads. They're doing everything they can with the development and with the population we have. They're also saying, well, we'd like to do this. I've seen the — I've heard the plans for the overpass and the road expansion. They say it's going to happen in 2004. Well, I've also heard it was going to be done a few years back and a few years before that, and when it is going to happen, they say 2004, 1 don't believe it. Five years with the added traffic, the added safety hazards with the kids and everything else going on in that area is not suitable for the neighborhoods. The — you know, I'm a working man. I'm struggling to make my life better. I bought into an upper -end neighborhood that is great. It's wonderful. All the subdivisions in that area are similar. They're upper -end, working class people who are making a better life, and this is not going to help us. You know, we rely on our budget, we stick to the budget, and then if somebody comes in and just immediately makes it worse, it's not going to be happy to continue working for that, and I just would really like to see you annex the property for another reason, not this apartment complex. Thank you. Rountree: Thank you. Sir. Lavado: My name is Dave Lavado. I'm at 697 Trinidad in Meridian Greens, and, again, like the others, I won't belabor all of the quality of life and impact on the traffic and things that everybody else have, but I do think we have a very unique situation here, and that's one where I've stopped to think about where the real closest rental property is to this area. And it's quite a few miles. So I made a few calls to a couple real estate folks that I know, and I said, "What would be the impact of rental property on the real bottom line to the homeowners," which is the folks in this room and who are on the petition, and their estimates were, without any other real rental property being there of a complex of this nature, it could be three to five percent. So my question to Mr. Cooke would be, are you willing to give all of the 800 petitioners on that list compensation at three to five percent for your property for the impact to us? And my general guess is no, you're not. So the next question would be to the Council. Are you going to make us bear the burden of that? Rountree: Thank you. Anyone else? Oh. You are going to testify. Come on up. She's been bugging me all night. MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 33 Jackson: My name is Toni, and I live at 1598 East Mastiff in Sportsman Pointe. I wasn't going to talk, in fact, I'm scared to death, but I fell compelled to say that I have the same concerns that the other homeowners do, being traffic, schools, these kinds of things. But I guess bottom line for me is that we've made an investment in Meridian. We've purchased our homes, we've put our money into our homes. We scouted out our neighborhoods, we tried to locate areas that were what we felt were good for our families, that had good environments, that had, you know, low traffic, good schools, these kinds of things. We did all of the homework to do this, and I worry that the needs of the many here should outweigh the needs of one person who wants to come in and do a business, inundate our communtiy with 300 units and then go back to Utah. You know, he doesn't feel the effects that we feel. We're left here to deal with 2400 cars a day which, if you've ever driven on Overland Road, right now, it's overflowing. It's difficult to turn across traffic. It's two lanes. It's not — it worries me that the needs of the one shouldn't outweigh the needs of the many who have already invested in our city. And the impacts to us are far worse than the impact to Mr. Cooke if he was to move his project elsewhere. If our values go down, we lose money. If we can't get out on Overland Road to get to work, we have to try to find alternative routes or leave early. If we get in a wreck because we're trying to take chances to get out there because it's so crowded, we wreck our car, you know. If our schools are overcrowded, and our children have to be bused somewhere else or they have to rezone to put our children in different schools, that impacts us. All of these concerns that we bring in here impact all us individually, as families, and as homeowners. And it concerns me that, you know, I would hope that you're there to represent us as the citizens of Meridian, and that to take into consideration how these things impact all of us, because they impact every one of us here and every one of us in the City. *** End of Tape 1, Side 2 *** Rountree: We have some firemen here (inaudible). Okay. There you go. Jackson: It's (inaudible) I guess what I would ask, I'm just one person. We're just one family. We're just one home. But the impacts of a big multi -complex, and I've lived in apartments when I was young. I understand the traffic — when you live in an apartment, you don't have a vested interest. You don't own it. You don't — you know, you move in, you move out, these kinds of things because that's what apartments are there for. They're there to live and hopefully you move on to your first home and these kinds of things. And I would hope that as our Councilmen that you would represent our needs and the needs of the many here, and hopefully take into consideration the impacts that your decision has on all of us as individuals, because it's a huge impact on us. Thank you. MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 34 Rountree: Thank you. He didn't get that. Could you repeat it? Do we have folks in the wings back there that want to testify? If you do, would you try to get towards the center of the entrance so that we can get you moving up here? Ma'am, come on up. This lady's going to be before you, but thank you. Fogg-Monchia: My name is Debra Fogg-Monchia. I live at 1429 East Griffen Street, Sportsman Pointe. I agree with everybody else and what they've said so far regarding schools, roads. (inaudible) minor — require (inaudible) affect the water and the sewer system in that area? From what I understand it's also a little bit old, the system as it is now (inaudible) Thanks. Rountree: Thank you. Okay, sir. Yeah. You. Wells: Thank you, gentlemen. My name is Darren Wells. I live at 1725 South Labrador in Sportsman Pointe directly across the street from the proposed development. I have a few concerns I'd like (inaudible) you ought to try the crowded section in the back. I hate to come up here and make jokes and make light of the situation because I felt it was important enough to come, but I think it really emphasizes the point everybody's trying to make. Meridian is crowded, it's not prepared to deal with it, you call this a public hearing, but yet most of those people who are concerned can't even get close enough to the discussin to hear it. So I think that just kind of re-emphasizes the problems that we have. That's kind of one way to look at it. There are a couple other ways to look at it. You can look at it on a modern economic times; everybody's been reasonably successful. We've (inaudible) as a community appointed you as our board of directors to guide over and deal with the investment that we've chosen to make when we've purchased a home here in Meridian, you know, and I understand as a board of directors, you need to (inaudible) city and do what you feel is best, but your primary job is to protect that economic investment that the community has made together as a whole in Meridian and to be concerned about other options for places that aren't making it — haven't already committed to make that economic investment in Meridian, I think is an error. I appreciate your time. Rountree: Thank you. Darren, we've got one more seat up here. When it comes to decision time — Wells: That actually is my other point that I forgot. I think as a resident, you see a grand deal of willingness of people to invest time and effort into their community. I serve on the Board of Directors for Sportsman Pointe; I'm the vice president, and I'm happy to do it. I think the community I live in is very important. I think it's important that I watch over and try and provide a good place, a safe place for my children to live. I also spend a great deal of time, and I come here a couple times a year to sign my kids up, and I'm happy to volunteer my (inaudible) soccer program, and I just don't thick you're going to get that kind of involvement from residents in an apartment complex. understand they need a place to live, and I don't like the comments, well, we're required MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 35 to park our cars in a garage, or we're worried about this or we're worried about that. You know, these people are people too. They need a place to live just as well as we do, but I again, the kind of co -habitation of these two different types of lifestyles is inappropriate in this area. Thanks. Rountree: Ma'am. Wilson: My name's Jan Wilson. I live at 1004 East Shepard. I, obviously, am in agreement with all of the things that have been brought up so I won't say them again. I've been standing here for an hour and a half or so with the rest of these people. I see a sign -in sheet here that my husband just signed, but I hadn't heard anything about it. How do we account for all the people that are here to voice their opinions but don't have the time or don't come up to say something to you people? Is somebody going to circulate this or tell people or how do you know how many people were here to voice their disapproval? I just ask you to take a look. Rountree: In response, it's not necessarily a vote. It's the quality and the type and the array of comments that we receive that we consider. So it's not a voting situation. Wilson: (inaudible) Rountree: Thank you. Gentleman in the red shirt. Fogg: My name is Stacie Fogg. I live at 2290 South Tagish in Raven Hills. I am dressed as an EMT because I work for an ambulance service out of Boise, Idaho. We've been here for about 20 years. My folks have lived out in this area, and I can tell you right now that Overland Road is four years behind schedule. It needs to be at least a two-lane road as it is now, from Meridian all the way down to at least Five Mile because it is — I was an EMT, there was an accident about a month ago where a guy didn't want to stay behind a sweeper so he decided to pass somebody. He caused a three -car accident. What I'm saying is that Overland and Locust Grove is too busy now. People get impatient, they make a fatal mistake and someone dies. Before this complex gets built, I can understand how they want to come in and do this. I was divorced, and I needed a place to stay, and I understand about low-income housing, and I appreciate it, but before this ever gets developed, the road of Overland and Locust Grove need to be developed first because people get impatient when they're sitting at a light for 15 minutes, and they say forget this and go around, and someone gets hurt. I am concerned about the entrances into this complex. I personally think that they ought to have at least three entrances off of Locust Grove and another three entrances off of Overland plus an emergency entrance just because they are a high-rise scenario, and that requires at least a four fire department alarm. You will get truck one from Boise Fire, you will also get Whitney Fire and you also get Meridian Fire. And the accesses for those big fire trucks; truck one is a ladder truck, and it's a huge truck. To get that in MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 36 there, to get the access, to get these people out of these houses if they burn or if they catch fire becauses accidents do happen. So my concern is my kids live, I live in Raven Hills, I get my kids over the weekend, but my kids are playing out in the street. There is nothing for my kids to play in a park or something else. They're required — they go out and play in the street. All it's going to do is increase the rate of someone being hurt. That's all I have to say. Rountree: Stacie, I have a question. I either misunderstood you or you misspoke. You said that Overland needed to be two lanes, and I think you probably meant — Fogg: Four lanes. Rountree: -- four lanes. Fogg: I'm sorry. I get nervous just like everybody else. Rountree: That's why I asked. Fogg: It really does. And it needs to have turning lanes at the intersections because what they did to Eagle Road was fantastic. But as you look at the business of Eagle Road, at 4:00 when they go down over — when they go across Franklin, they're backed up, and this starts at 4:30 and does not end until 7:00 and everybody on the EMS is on alert. They stay close — look at where they're building down there on Flying Y. I mean, jimminy Chrismas. I mean, it's busy. I mean, it's backed up — they back it up all the way to what? Nampa? And someone's going to get impatient and someone's going to get hurt because they were late. This can't happen. Thank you. Rountree: Thank you. (inaudible) Southerland: I waited. I have two things — brand new. Number one, I presume that you gentlemen — my name is Ted Southerland. Mr. Gigray, I know you very well. My address 2365 East Three Bars. I presume these gentlemen have businesses in the City of Meridian. I come up Locust Grove to Overland and tum right because I have so much turning left I have given up. I don't think me and my and any member of my family together, all of us, has spent more than $150 in the last year and a half that we've lived in this area, in the City of Meridian. And it's primarily traffic. By the time we get into that left tum onto Overland, through the stop lights at Kuna Meridian Road and into Meridian, it's not worth it. We do all of our shopping over in Five Mile and Overland. Now you do what you want with that. The other thing is I have been involved in past years in the real estate business. I'm familiar with Boston Capital organization which does basicallly the same thing you people do. Use government money and loan money to develop these low-income units. If Boston Capital called me today and asked me to find a piece of property for them to develop this kind of a thing, this is the last place in MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 37 the world I'd look. The reason is very simple. You're butting up against the freeway that is super -noisy. One of the first things I did five years ago when I moved into Boise area was rent a home on Camas, if you know where Camas is, with the idea of the possibility of buying. I was delighted with the home, delighted with the huge background which butted up against the freeway. Looked at it on a Sunday afternoon and it wasn't too terribly noisy and I thought, not a bad place to live, and I moved my family in. Two weeks later we put a volleyball net up in the backyard, and we found we couldn't communicate with one another. We couldn't. We had to yell in order to find out who was doing what when. Needless to say, we didn't buy that home. We built the home where we are now residing and enjoying it thoroughly. I'll guarantee you that if you allow this subdivision to be put in the way it is planned, that you're going to have some real poor people living next to the freeway. You're not going to have good quality low-income people living backyard to that terrible noise. And there's no way the property on Camas had a huge berm with a fence on top, and I could not communicate with somebody on the other side of a net in my backyard. That noise is going to deter good quality low-income people from living in that unit. Thank you. Rountree: Thank you. Yes, sir. Young: My name is Stan Young. I live at 671 East Trinidad in Meridian Greens Subdivision. I came here just last October from Utah. Prior to that I had lived in southern California, but coming to Meridian was coming home because I was born here in a little house right down the street. So, I'm very concerned about the quality of life in my old home town, and I want to maintain it. It seems to me, I know you don't like to hear about California, however, they've put in an infrastructure first, and then they put in the communities. We're doing it backwards here. We're trying to put in some communities and then come along and provide for them. Another thing, I lived in an upscale neighborhood down there, $500,000 homes, this was about six to seven years ago, I was on the Board of Directors and president of the Homeowners Association for a couple of years, and we didn't have ycrime, no thislastspea,lkereybuilt some Qu Quality people saree apartment units, and then it beganI agree with not going to live next to a freeway. Thanks. Christensen: My name is Virginia Christensen. I live at 635 East Antigua. I've lived in Meridian nine years, and I love it. Its a wonderful community. I've never been before you gentlemen before, but I have been before the Planning and Zoning Commission on two or three separate occassions. Each time was to ask them to please not change the plan. When we all moved into this area, we knew what was going in across the street from us because it was zoned accordingly. We knew what was going in beside us and around us because it was zoned. That's the whole idea of zoning. And on those separate occassions when we — I've stood before you, it is because the developer at Sportsman Pointe and Meridian Greens wanted to change the zoning to accommodate their plans and not the City's plans. And I would be standing before the Zoning and 0 0 MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 38 Planning Commission had I known about this project coming up, so I am here tonight. I have just three quick points. I hope I don't repeat anything since I've been way back out there by the outside doors and haven't heard a single thing, but forgive me if I repeat. I'll try and be quick. Number one is just that. Please don't change the zoning to accommodate the plans of the developers. Number two is when you downgrade the zoning, you downgrade your tax base. I have lived 18 years in Boise and nine of them in Meridian, and as all of you know, and I know, and anybody who has lived in here for any time, most of the businesses in Boise, most of the people that work in those businesses are living in Meridina or outlying areas, and so we need all the tax base and as much tax base as we can get to be able to do all of those things that people have talked about tonight. My husband happens to work with low-income housing, in a kind of a side way. He's not a developer, and I know how these developments work. The first question is, if we don't put this in here, where will it go? And you gentlemen probably know this better than I do, that developers get options on a piece of land and then go seek to get the zoning or the approval to put in these developments. If it does not go here, I can assure you, and you probably know this is true that there are several other properties in Meridian that have already and options placed on them to do the same kind of a situation, development. When Meridian Ford wanted to go in across the street from us, I was not objectionable because I knew that's the kind of development that would go across the street from me. It was appropriate. But when we downgrade our zoning to accommodate the builder's wish, then we downgrade our tax base, we hurt our infrastructure, all those things we've talked about tonight. My last point is this: I have also seen, when I moved out to Meridian, that little sign as you came into Meridian, said 7,600 and some -odd people. I've noticed now that that sign says 36,000 and some -odd people, and I know why that's the case. Because we hold the cards. This is where the development is coming to. Meridian is called Meridian because it's right in the middle of everything, and people want to be here. We have developers coming to us from as far away as Arizona, Texas, everybody wants to build in Meridian. Did you know that in one of the national magazines we were listed as the 130' fastest growing city in the whole country? That's because we hold the cards. Gentlemen, I submit to you that it is high time that we say to the developers who want to, and I know at least two or three that have gotten wealthy from building in our community. Wealthy. To the point of retiring because of the developments they put in our community. I have no objection to that. I think everybody should make every dollar that they can make, but I think that since we hold the cards, it is high time that we, as Meridianites, say to those developers, "You want to build in Meridian? What are you going to do for us? How are you going to make Meridian a better place to live?" And that would be my suggestion, too. Before we put anything into this area, and I have no allussions that it will be not be homes like mine, but before we put anything into this community, we need to ask ourselves, "What is our overall plan for Meridian? What do we want to get out of our land?" And we need to say to those developers, "You know, that's a good idea. Now what are you going to do for us if you're going to get wealthy out of this community?" Thank you. MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 39 Weston: My name's Larry Weston. I recently moved to Sportsman Pointe. I live at 1365 East Blue Tick right across the street from this proposed development. I have several concerns. One of which, upon moving here, just recent move -in, my kids can't go to the school in the area, my moving into with all the neighborhood kids because it's already crowded at Mary McPherson. I've got to put my kids on a bus and send them to Lake Hazel. So they don't get to go with kids nearby. They're already — here in Meridian we're already behind in building schools for our kids, and it seems ridiculous to me that we're going to go ahead and build a 300 — or allow a 300 -unit complex built that close, and in an area where we've already got to be shipping kids away from our homes to go to school. I'm really concerned about how this picture is being painted as kind of a really nice family — it's a family unit or family — multi -family complex. I've lived in areas like that before when 1 was first married. I didn't think it was all that neat of an environment. It was unsettling to me that 1 had to work nights and leave my wife at home at nights alone and have kids, young adults, not married that they just — four or five guys got together, moved into an apartment, and partied all night, and I would get to leave my wife at home with this going on. Many nights, I can remember when I was at home sleeping listening to them out in the parking lots cursing, the fighting going on that happens in situations such as that. I can remember situations where my younger sisters came over and would be harrassed by guys when she's trying to come up and visit me. This doesn't seem like a real good environment for a family. We're considering putting this right next to family dwellings. 1 think it's neat that maybe we can have places for multi -family to dwell, but I also think we need to look at what else is going to come with a development like that. And I don't think its making Meridian any the better. So that's what I have to say. Thank you. Rountree: Thank you. Anyone else? Remind you to try to keep it to three minutes and something we haven't heard. Come on up. Hankley: All right. Nathan Hankley, 1582 East Opossum Court. I just flat don't want the apartments there. I'm concerned about my eight-year-old daughter's welfare. I'm concerned about my property values. I'm from California. The one man said that California built the freeways, built everyth' s. Took me twenty yng before thy brougea seapartmentout of theres'n. twenty Everybody knows what a mess California years to get out of an apartment. I don't want them anywhere near me. Thank you. Wendt: My name is Kimberly Wendt, live at 1991 East Three Bars Drive in Los Alamedos. I'm a dispatcher for an agency just outside of Ada County, and I've seen the kind of people that move into low-income housing. They're not all that bad, but when you have people that are losing their children because they can't supervise their children because there's ten- and six-year-old boys are running around at 11:00 at night stealing things from people, breakingtime for our emergency vehicles. Wh t kind of extreme, we're looking at response MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 40 response is it going to be for an ambulance and the fire department to get to that apartment compex at 4:00 in the afternoon because there's an accident or there's a guy who's having a heart attack and they can't get in because there's only two entrances? One that'll be blocked off of Overland? What kind of response are we going to have from our law enforcement agency when their budgets are being cut? They're not that big of a department as it is. What kind of response are we going to get from them during a domestic on a Friday night when we have to go between Ada County and Meridian? Is Meridian going to be able to get out there? Is Ada County going to be able to get out there? I don't know that the response times from emergency vehicles or emergency services have been thought about. And just being my exposure in the job that I have, I see that on an everday basis. Are we going to be able to get them out there as quickly as we need to be because of the access that's going to be blocked because of the increased traffic and the kind of people that are going to be in there? I don't oppose low-income housing, but what I do oppose is the kind that eventually fall in because not everybody wants to move into a lower-income development. I don't know that you guys would be as Councilmen were going to be living near that area or that you're going to be travelling on those roads, but everybody else who does are going to be the ones that are going to be impacted. I just wanted to bring that up. Emergency vehicles are going to be a big thing. You've got Boondocks. You've got the water park. When somebody falls off a park or off a slide, are we going to be able to get those emergency vehicles out there before something major happens to them, and it goes from something small to something big because we couldn't get them out there? That's all I have to say. Thanks. Riley: Hi. I'm Jerry Riley. I live at 1269 East Mastiff Street in Sportsman Pointe. I've got a couple concerns. I did 27-1/2 years in the military, I lived all over the world. Lived in major cities. I lived in Fort Mammoth, New Jersery, Cleveland, San Antonio, San Francisco, and I've been in places where if I forgot something in the house, I'd lock the car before I could go in. I chose Meridian because, and I'm finally able to if I don't remember if I locked the house when I leave, I can actually go someplace and not have to run back and check to make sure I locked the door. Another thing, five years ago, I rode my bike across the interstate on Meridian Road. One time. And the traffic was so bad the trucks were brushing my windbreaker. So recommend solution, if you are going to bring this in, don't bring it in until you get a pedestrian crossway over that bridge. Another solution is if you're going to put it in, put some baseball fields, maybe a YMCA over there or something like that. And then the last thing I wanted to say is 100 percent of us here, we live here, this is our home, this is our neighborhood. 100 percent of us oppose it, so all I can say is I don't care where you guys live, I don't want to know where you live, but I know if you lived across Overland Road, you'd be voting right along — you'd be agreeing with us right now. Thanks. Rountree: Anyone else? Ma'am. 0 • MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 41 Berta: Hi. I'm Connie Berta, and I live at 2063 South Elkhound Avenue in Sportsman Pointe Subdivision. I know that this has probably been mentioned, but not quite in this way is it's been mentioned that the Boondocks and the waterpark are down on Overland. Those 240 children will be trying to get there. How do you think they're going to do that? They're going to go by bike and they're going to peddle it down there. My kids are 16 and 19, and they've peddled their bikes down there. They've walked down there, and it's downright scary. They're taking their lives in their hands to go down Overland Road. That road needs to be a four -lane road before you do anything. Thank you. Rountree: Anybody else? Okay. If the applicant would like to address some of the questions that have been raised — Cooke: If you think you're scared. I guess the hardest one was yours when you said I felt your pain. I do. Rountree: Excuse me, Pete. Just get us on record. Cooke: Peter Cooke — I think everybody here knows my name. Rountree: We don't on tape, though. We don't see faces on the tape. Cooke: Mr. President, thank you. The integrity of the individual, this is only where I'm trying not to be emotional. I really thought that was a comment that I do feel a concern here, and whether how this vote goes, I just want to plead for several things. First of all, I don't know where low-income housing has come into this factor, because we couldn't even talk about this at Planning and Zoning. The attorney didn't even allow us to bring that up even as a discussion. It was referred to as 236s and Section 8s where high crime does come, but I don't even know where that issue's coming. I know it's been presented to everybody that this is going to be a low-income housing development. With that comes a fear. I think that has stirred a lot of people up, and I think that's an issue that I think is not fair for us because nobody said this was going to be a low- income housing project. There were too, I think, tonight is not defending where I come from Utah or where — we're all Americans. America is a country where business (inaudible) support business. Whether or not this development is going to be enhanced by people living next to the freeway or what have you, this should not be a discussion of a cast system of — you know, apartment dwellers and what have you. I will own this development, and I will keep it, and my profit is determined on how it looks, and I will become part of this residency here meaning I will be here to make sure that development moves forward. Here is a (inaudible) to defend the process. You've had professional planners who have addressed every one of these emotional issues, who have addressed the issues — I'm concerned tactiviNeare — the that the ovelrall highway expansion meeting it was told to us that because of the tY MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 42 was expedited, and that would fit in, and the Planniur ne and think thag and Zoning t's n theat was a m minutes, critical vote for them that this would meet ie actually brought that up that the and one of the Planning and Zoning people ay Inaudible lower infrastructure would catch up to it.

Cooke: In the last time, the attorney didn't allow us to have that discussion (inaudible) Rountree: (inaudible) The question needs to come through Council. So you're asking that — for that information. What are the rental rates? Nicholson: The rental rates, and the reason I'm asking that question is the information that I've been given is low-income housing. So that's the reason I'm asking the question. nts to the Council, we'll get your question Rountree: Let's you address your comme answered. Nicholson: Okay. My question is to you the rental rates for those units. 9 0 MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 43 Rountree: Okay. Thank you. Nicholson: The other reason I'm here is that just to acknowledge or get recognition that I'm in opposition of this development. Thank you. Rountree: Ma'am. Weber: Yes.

And I haven't heard any parent here on behalf knowabouttheir children, City Councilmen, who year-old son and a 14 -year-old daughter who don't don't know about developers, but they have mentioned to me on a number of occassions in the last week when they have been seeing he lived there?

And I would just ask that maybe you would consider what the children are thinking about right now. Thank you. Rountree: Anyone else? New? Something we haven't heard? Waite: Yes. Rountree: Okay. Waite: My name is Bruce Waite.

It's totally inappropriate in its location in relation to the freeway into all the businesses adjoining to it. It's just completely out of place for that locatfor them, and it's ion, and the quality life for the folks that live in there is not kids that live there.oing to be You quoted- or somebody quoted a concerr n for the safety of the 0 i MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 44 roughly 170 some kids of junior -high age and less, and how many toddlers and younger kids and that are going to be riding their bikes, playing in that area? There's no other area to go to from their to recreate in other than our subdivisions. There's no sidewalks for them to go up and down Overland or Locust Grove on, so the quality of life for the tenants in that area is not anything that I would propose. Park City's one thing. There's upper-income, folks. You're going to the ski hills. This is not Park City where they're building that. Thank you. Rountree: Anyone else? You've testified, sir. McCormick: Hi. I'm Ed McCormick, 1341 East Beagle. A lot of the people here are expressing a lot of frustrations towards the Council as if somehow you're the one proposing this development, and you're not. I know that. The people that live here, their frustration, a lot of fear, a lot of concern, but if the proposal was here for a prison or a nuclear plant, it would be just as out of place in that area as having almost 1,000 people. It doesn't fit into the neighborhood. It doesn't fit into the community. Now I don't know — this is the first place I've ever lived where a car dealership was preferable to other people living there. But if the people live here believe that this is what they want to have, then I just ask that you would hear them very clearly, and set aside their frustration that you — that their frustration is fear. And I really do believe you'll make money somplace else, and I hope you do really well, but just not here. Rountree: You turned a great phrase there. Again, three minutes, new testimony, ma'am. Johnston: Hi. I'm Denise Johnston. I live in Sportsman Pointe, and I just have a question. If we want to build a fence too close to the road, we've got to get the whole neighborhood to sign it. How can you change the zoning where people have built their homes knowing that's the zoning that's going to be there without getting the majority of people around it to approve it? We can't even move a fence, but you can consider changing zoning which will affect schools, property values, and other things you've already heard. And that's just a question that I'd like to pose to you. Thank you. Rountree: Thank you. Ma'am. Brimhall: My name is Brook Brimhall. I live at 840 East Martinique in Meridian Greens. I'd like to submit for record another ten signatures from our petition. I just want to bring up as the lady said as she was presenting her information about the apartment complex, the letter from Jim Carberry from the school district saying that we will have all these other kids, and he will approve it with the help of the City Council, and how are they going to fix the problem with the kids? So that is the question that I bring up to you: How can the City Council do that, and what are your plans to do that? Thank you. MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 45 Rountree: Sir. Corder: Yes, sir. Kent Corder, 2521 South River Downs Place in Meridian, Los Alamedos Subdivision. Taking all the emotion out of this and making it strictly a business decision, sir, we don't need to worry about who's going to live there and what they're going to pay, and taking away all of the descriminatory comments and just getting down to business, the infrastructure of Meridian is just not prepared to it, I believe. The zoning is there, I believe we should stay at the prescribed zoning and zero community support. So as a licensed real estate agent, I'd like to offer my card to this gentleman, and I'll make you some money, sir. Rountree: We're not here to broker deals. Anybody else? I'll remind you we've been at this almost an hour and a half. Anybody have new testimony to offer? If you've testified before, you've had your opportunity. Traska: Hello. I'm John Traska, 1928 East Blue Tick, Raven Hills Sub. Don't have a whole lot new to add. Everybody kind of feels the same way I do. I just like to ask you gentlemen of the Council. You have 800 names submitted, some more submitted, I think if all the people have been contacted, you'd probably have two or 300 more names. Those people live here, they pay their taxes here and they've built their lives here. And we want to stay here. Consider those people. Thank you. Rountree: Thank you. Anyone else? I have just a question for Peter. Could you speak to the possible range, though you may not be specific. If you'd use the mike. Cohen: My name's Mark Cohen. I'm with (inaudible) Development Company. Our original performance are the two -bedrooms would start in the mid to high $500 range, and the three -bedrooms would end in the mid $700 range. That's giving you ranges to where we'd start, and that's probably 18 months from now, 24 months from now. Rountree: Okay. Thank you. Council, is there any discussion? Need a motion to consider closing the hearing. Bentley: So moved. I withdraw the motion. Question for the developer. I was reading the Findings of Fact in the information from Ada County Highway District, and they were talking about on Locust Grove and the overpass and talking about the interstate that there would need to be some contact with Idaho Department of Transportation. I haven't seen any submitting material. What I'm concerned about is if and when they do build this overpass, it's obvious that the emergency access is going to go away, and I would assume that they probably have some guidelines on any access roads coming in a certain distance from an overpass. Has any of that been researched, and would that side access on Locust Grove go away when that overpass is built? 0 MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 46 Rountree: Give us your name, please. Cohen: Mark Cohen. In fact, if you see — Rountree: Take the mike with you, sir. Cohen: I assume you're talking about the emergency exit. is Bentley: Yeah. The second one, when they build the overpass — Cohen: Down here? Bentley: Yeah. — is that close enough to the overpass that that would be eliminated too? Cohen: No. We've followed their instructions on that. If that was the case, then the entire gas company and everybody that way up, the recreation, we're far enough down. They're more concerned about our distance off the interchange than they were from that up to the overpass. This would not, obviously, work, and that's why we took that out of our original drawings. Bentley: Thank you. Rountree: Any other discussion on Council's part? Bentley: No. Bird: I have none. Rountree: Do we have a motion? Bentley: Mr. President, I move we close the public hearing. Bird: Second. Rountree: Been moved and seconded to close the public hearing. All those in favor? MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES Rountree: Discussion, deliberation? Bentley: First of all, I'd like to thank everybody for coming here tonight. We can't even see you all out there, and we do appreciate the way you conducted and in an orderly MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 47 fashion. We've had some here that have gotten out of hand, but we appreciate what you've done. On the project, 1 have some real concerns for the ingress and egress. It's a lot of vehicles, a lot of traffic — *** End of Tape 2, Side 1 *** I understand the plans of ACHD and understand their timelines. As of right now, I have a real problem with supporting this project. The emergency access, as stated, will go away. No sense in really getting in with it because of the contact at the bridge. I've got some real problems, so I won't support this. Rountree: Any other discussion? Anderson: Mr. President. Rountree: Mr. Anderson. Anderson: I'd like to just make a statement, I guess, to the public, because I heard several comments during testimony — I heard several comments about worrying about police and fire protection and public safety, and there were several comments about cutting the police department budget. I think what's happening is there's been some misinformation put out there. That was not the case. The City Council did not cut the police department budget. In each city department budget, there are three components. One is the personnel cost, the other is the operating cost, and one is for capital improvement: purchase of new equipment or new buildings or vehicles and things like that. We simply had more requests this year than what we had money. We had a request of over $1,500,000 for capital improvement for the police department and over $2,000,000 for the parks department. We asked them to trim that down, they weren't able to do that for us, so we therefore took the capital improvement out of those departments' budgets, and we put that money over in another area of the City's budget, and we will determine at a later point what those capital expenditures will be. But I want you to rest assured that we are not cutting police officers, we are not cutting salaries, we are not cutting their operating expenses — Rountree: We increased their salaries. Anderson: Yeah. In fact, we've increased their salaries, so I just wanted you rest assured that we are not doing that and a lot of that has been misinformation that has been presented to the public. So I apologize for that. As speaking to the project, I have heard a lot of testimony tonight, and there's been a lot of you folks that have done some extremely valuable homework, it sounds like. I, too, have been a long-time Meridian resident, and I remember when that signbout building the mfrastructu a e as you first into That would agree with the gentleman that talked a 9 • MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 48 be really nice to do. It would be really nice to widen all the highways and to build fire stations and hire police officers and have the schools. We simply haven't found that magical pot of gold to be able to do all those things prior to development hitting. This particular project, though, I would tend to agree, is the density is very high for the particular area, I don't think the infrastructure is there at this point to support this type of development, I'm not sure it mixes real well with commercial development. My gut feeling at this point is that I would not be in favor of this project. Rountree: Any other discussion? Bird: Mr. President. Rountree: Mr. Bird. Bird: Yeah. I worry about the infrastructure. Of course, I also feel that if we were to worry about infrastructures, I am one that was moved here to Meridian when the sign said 1900. Anderson: Always trying to one-up me. Bird: I (inaudible) but you know, if we had worried about infrastructure, Meridian Greens and Sportsman Pointe and that stuff wouldn't be out there now. I don't think its the time for this kind of development at that point. I believe with the church, I would a lot sooner see it go to a commercial. I do'think you want retail support this. out there because of the same reasoning. So I, fight at this point, Rountree: Mr. Gigray. Gigray: Mr. President, members of the Council, this is just a point of procedure. Since you had a joint hearing for both the annexation and zoning and conditional use permit, would recommend you might consider your deliberation on the annexation and zoning which is Item 8. Depending on what your decision is on that might govern what you would do on Item 9. Rountree: Thank you for pointing that out. Any other comments? Gigray: I have no more comments. Bird: I have none. Rountree: Okay. We need some guidance and direction and a motion for Item No. 8 which is the annexation and zoning. 0 0 MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 49 Bentley: Mr. President. Rountree: Mr. Bentley. Bentley: I would move that we deny the annexation and zoning of 20.35 acres for R-15 zoning of land proposed for 300 units of multi -unit family rental for Sundance Apartment Homes by Sundance, LLC. Rountree: Need a second. Anderson: I would second that. Rountree: I was wondering where you guys went. (inaudible) I have a motion to deny. My question with regards to the motion is we need findings. Anderson: Okay. I will withdraw my second. Bentley. Okay. Now I understand where you're headed. Mr. President, I would move that we instruct the City Attorney to prepare Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law reflecting the denial of the annexation and zoning of 20.35 acres for a 300 -unit multi- family rental by Sundance, LLC. Anderson: I would second that again. Rountree: It's been moved and seconded to prepare Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law which would reflect the denial of the application for annexation and zoning of this Item No. 8. Any discussion? Bird: I have none. Rountree: All those in favor of the motion signify — excuse me. Its a roll -call. Mr. Anderson: Aye. Rountree: I was about ready to call you Mr. Armstrong. That's an internal joke there. Mr. Bentley. Bentley: Aye. Rountree: Mr. Bird. Bird: Aye. MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 50 Rountree: All in favor of the motion. MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES. Rountree: Now that's Item 8. We have Item 9, the conditional use permit. It's almost a moot point, but we need a motion. Gigray: Do we need some instruction? Point of information, procedure. Mr. President, members of the Council, since your action directs that I prepare Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law regarding denial of annexation and zoning, and because conditional use permits cannot be granted until there is an annexation and until there is a zone in which the conditional use permit is authorized under City ordinance, it would appear to me that it would be appropriate to simply table Item 9 pending your final action on Item 8 which would occur when you finally adopt findings and conclusions in order because it's, as you know, been my advice that you can make changes in those up until the point that you vote on them, and I think it'd just be appropriate to table Item 9. Rountree: Thank you. Bird: Mr. President. Rountree: Mr. Bird. Bird: I move that we table the conditional use permit for 300 units of multi -family houses by Sundance, LLC, north of Overland Road and west of Locust Grove until the Findings of Facts and Conclusion on Decision of Order for the annexation and zoning has been passed. Rountree: Is there a second? Anderson: Second. Rountree: Its been moved and seconded to table Item No. 9. All those in favor signify by saying aye. MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES. Rountree: Again, folks, I'd like to thank you all for following instructions well and making this as pleasant for all of us as we could. Anderson: Let's not have a jail break. 1] 0 MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 PAGE 51 Rountree: I'm going to entertain a motion from Council right now, because I think we all need a bit of a break. Anderson: So moved. Rountree: Moved. Second? Anderson: Second. Rountree: All in favor? MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES 10. PUBLIC HEARING: REQUEST FOR PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR SANTEE COMMERCIAL COMPLEX BY PINNACLE ENGINEERS (WES WORCESTER) — LOT 3 BLOCK 2 OF RAILSIDE PARK SUBDIVISION. (ATTORNEY TO PREPARE FINDINGS) 11. PUBLIC HEARING: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR TOWNHOUSE CONVERSION OF MULTIPLE BUILDINGS ON A 1 ACRE LOT BY WES WORCESTER—RAILSIDE PARK SUBDIVISION AT PINE AND LOCUST GROVE: (ATTORNEY TO PREPARE FINDINGS) Rountree: Items 10 and 11, preliminary plat and a conditional use permit. Those people here on Items 10 and 11, would you object to having both of those hearings opened up at the same time? Unidentified speaker: (inaudible) Rountree: Anybody else? Bird: Is that the same Rountree: Its the same. Is that agreeable with the Council? Bird: That's agreeable with me. Rountree: Okay, then I'll open up both hearings 10 and 11 for request for preliminary plat and a conditional use permit for townhouse conversion on multiple -use buildings on one -care lots of Wes Worcester, Railside Park Subdivision. Shari. And before she starts, those people who are here for hearings, the Council opened the agenda earlier and has made the decision that they will not open an additional public hearing after 10:30, so after about Item 13, its questionable whether or not you'll have your hearing Meridian Planning and 10ing Committee Special Meeting . August 25, 1999 Page 32 Borup: Yes. I don't believe we had any other choice, did we? Rossman: Sure you did. De Weerd: Mr. Chairman. I would move that we continue the public hearing on the preliminary plat for Bear Creek Subdivision to be continued until September 14tH Barbeiro: I second that motion. Borup: All in favor? MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES. Borup: This would be a good time for a five minute break. Looks like a natural break, so we will reconvene in five minutes. ITEM NUMBER 5. CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING: ANNEXATION & ZONING OF 20.35 ACRES (FOR R-15 ZONING) OF LAND FOR PROPOSED 300 UNITS OF MULTI -FAMILY RENTAL FOR PROPOSED SUNDANCE APARTMENT HOMES BY SUNDANCE, LLC—NORTH OF OVERLAND ROAD AND WEST OF LOCUST GROVE: Borup: Staff, do we have any additional staff report. Hawkins: Commissioners, if you recall this project you continued at your July 13 meeting again primarily for sewer reasons. Fortunately, in this instance Brad's report did come back suggesting that the project move ahead. That the sewer capacity in this project should not be a reason to deny it, so there was not a thorough staff report prior. That is what this is, so again, just a quick orientation. The project application before you involves seven different parcels. You've got an existing CG. This sliver across the north piece of the project adjacent to 184 is all ready annexed into the city. We would like to request that all of our staff comments on the 8/24 report be incorporated into your decision. This property is bounded on the northeast by natural gas company which has a two story block building and the majority of it is used for storage and equipment and tools. Locust Grove currently dead ends right here at the overpass of 184. 1 would point out the Ada Planning Association at their last months meeting move the overpass from their long range 20/20 plan to the transportation improvement program. So it is basically a soft planning document to the hard planning document. I can't tell you anymore as far as specific dates, but that is a change as of last month on the overpass. You currently have the Sportsman Pointe Subdivision across Overland on the south and then a vacant piece here across Nine Mile. The project itself as you have in your packets is laid out more or less in this fashion. I won't go into details but will point out a couple of things in our reports as well as the ACHD report has 3 things that are important to point out. One is that they asked the applicant to move their drives about 30 feet from the intersection from where they are proposed. You've got an existing— the main entry here, ACHD suggests 30 feet to the west and then another secondary entry here on Locust Grove which again they suggest 315 feet from the intersection of Meridian Planning and laing Committee Special Meeting • August 25, 1999 Page 33 Overland. That was one of ACHD's. Another one was an emergency drive, which is currently a gravel road here along the north part of the project. The obvious thing to point out here is any kind of future overpass, that emergency access road will disappear. A center turn lane on Overland Road was also requested by ACHD and staff would certainly support that recommendation. Two things to point out, in the staff report itself, the request that they come back and annex rezone that CG portion of the north, that is on page 3 item 1. Page 4, item 5, development agreement we are not suggesting that be a requirement for this project, assuming that you recommend that all the conditions and forwarded on to the Council more or less in its current proposed design. The other point on page 7, item 4,5 and 6 landscape buffers, staff has asked for a 20 foot landscape buffer instead of the 10 shown here adjacent to the natural gas company. We've asked for 35 feet since Overland is an entry way corridor in the Comprehensive Plan -35 feet the full length here on Overland, not just at the entrance. Again on 184 a 35 foot landscape buffer and of course they all ready show this. That was brought up at the previous meeting in terms of the location of this to 184. 1 guess that is it for a staff report right now. Borup: Any Commissioners have any questions for staff at this time? If not, is the applicant here and like to step forward. Cook: Yes I am here and I'd like to step forward. First of all I want to say, I have been doing this for a long time—a lot of Planning and Zoning meetings in my lifetime. Borup: Could you say your name sir. Cook: My name is Peter Cook. President of PSC Development Company. I was very impressed tonight by the way with the comments that were brouigh up. I though they were very detailed and very impressive. Thank you, I think for your service. I'm not doing that with any hope, but I thought is was very nice. And staff, your in the middle of a major problem here with the growth of the city and I think I can sense and feel the pull on that and I also want to thank you. It is hard thing about growth. I brought our whole team here tonight and we've got these great opportunity here to present to you some of the solutions that were—you suggested to us. I think our presentation your hearing tonight will be able to show you those were great recommendations and we've actually adapted move of them. The only other thing that has not been mentioned here—there is an affordable housing slice that we are or would want to develop in our business plan here. We have all ready talked about financing agency about this and they would be very excited to do something on this development with an affordable housing slice. That always gets people nervous and it shouldn't because basically in most cases it will be 60 percent of medium income. I think it is great for the city because one of your points here is the diversity in housing. As you grown and the opportunity for multiply family dwellings gets more and more pressured, rents will increase and this is a great opportunity to preserve it cause as growth comes your going to need people that can afford to live here. Usually I like to do this at the end if there is questions after our great team. Mark Cohen is here, one of my partners, any financial issues, Mike Hall is here Meridian Planning and laing Committee Special Meeting • August 25, 1999 Page 34 and Keith (inaudible). Then I would make the presentation if your to go to that kind of format —not format but we could make that kind of presentation would that be okay. Bennett: We received the staff comments yesterday. My name is Keith Bennett, PSC Development. Working with Brad on those comments, we've tried in the last 24 hours to address them as much as possible to show you that we have no problems with the suggestions that have been made or the recommendations that been made and in fact, maybe that isn't the best way-- There were traffic concerns like Bradley brought up which the previous plan did not address. This one does. For example, Overland Road and Locust Grove were called for to be a full 96 foot right of way and therefore 48 foot half width which we show reflected here as taking in to allow for that widening to allow for the center lane, turning lane on Overland that was a requirement. The distances therefore were not only from the property line but from the proposed new curb line in each direction. The new plan and I have smaller copies to give you, will show that we moved the entry over 317 feet, so it is beyond the 315 that was suggested and provided the 35 foot landscape buffer all the way along both Overland and Locust Grove, full length beyond, not the property line but the new proposed curb line. It is actually 23 feet plus 35 feet for a distance of both frontage streets of the landscaped area. Additionally, along Nine Mile Drain, we have 35 foot set back now shown, 35 foot setback totally across for the buffer on the freeway and the 20 foot setback that the staff recommended along the neighboring property. So each of those have been incorporated into the design. We took the recommendation and knowing now that this is more eminent of the overpass that it doesn't really serve as a secondary exit or an emergency exit, that has been eliminated and would be maintained as open space and therefore this becomes our secondary entry, which is what is what proposed before. The only issue that we have that does not meet full compliance with staff recommendation which I mentioned to Brad, was by widening the street and then (inaudible) on 315 feet, we'd run out of property. We are at 305 still have a 24 foot opening in that road, so we are 10 feet short of meeting the full intent of the report that was given. Maybe, there can be a trade of this land versus gaining a little more property here. I can't commit to that at the moment. This is the boundary of the property as it now stands, which gives us a 305 foot off set off of Overland Road from the new set back line. We have accommodated the parking requirement, the set back requirements, the building are within the limitations of the zone. The densities are below the 15 units per acre that is proposed. The open space is extensive and we have designed it such that we have interior courts that are green and open around the entire space as well as in obviously our landscape buffers all around the entire perimeter. Fencing was brought up as an issue for them. We are proposing a full fence on our side of the creek to keep it safe from the residents and that would be at least 6 foot high, solid vynal fence as well as along the freeway. Other fencing would stay as it with an existing chain link fence. And then no fencing along the frontages. With regard to any of their other concerns, we do not have any. We are willing to follow the staff recommendations implement them into our design. Do you have any questions? Barbeiro: Mr. Chairman. The landscape buffer along Overland and Locust Grove, is that a flat level or is that a birm? Meridian Planning and ping Committee Special Meeting 10 August 25, 1999 Page 35 Bennett: Typically it is per the recommendation of what we need, to meet the requirements of the city standards, be we do like to have some birming and interest to the front, particularly windows become a full 96 foot wide road right of way. Barbeiro So as the plan stands now, it is not a birm. Bennett: I do not have a full landscape plan as of 24 hours ago, I received this , so no our landscape that was submitted previously does not take into the fact that now we have 35 feet to deal with, so we can design that to accommodate that. Barbeiro: Okay. Thank you. Borup: Any other questions? Thank you. Who is next Mr. Cook That is it on your staff? Okay, I thought you had more. Okay, thank you. This is a continued public hearing. Do we have anyone else who would like to stand and testify. Henze: My name is David Henze. I live in Sportsman Point Subdivision. If you remember at the last hearing we had quite a few of us. There is a few tonight also. I just have a couple questions, if I might ask. What is the rent that they would expect from this ... The rent level. I did not quite understand what they were talking about, the assisted living or assisted houses that was there. Is this a full rent community? What level is this. That's the questions I basically had. The comments I have on this is, well if you go look at the traffic, which I think is the main issue, the plans that were made to extend Overland to 5 lanes, to put an overpass on Locust Grove. Evidentially a little farther down put an overpass on Linder and also down to Ten Mile with an exchange If you see there is a big need took up both sides of the city. What I have heard from several people I have talked to is that Overland has the potential, one of the worst traffic problems and the estimates right now is about 2005 where that could be extended to 5 lanes. If that is the case, if this goes forward, I would suggest that maybe we don't but the cart before the horse, but we solve the problems (inaudible). The other thing is, if you look and there is—if you can get into Sportsman Pointe off Locust Grove, I think given the corner of Locust Grove and Overland your going to have people cutting through the subdivision. Also there is another issue that I would like to bring up, is if you recently saw Boise and the surrounded areas were routed in the top 20 or top 15 of family and children friendly cities in the U.S. If you look farther into that study, some of the reasons why is because of urban sprawl and more specifically, apartment buildings being built outside of the city. If they want to be friendly to children, the apartment buildings should be built more toward locations where those dwellers are going to be working. That would be more in toward the city and toward business centers. This is a very residential area out here. Lot's of children. I would ask the people to drive through our neighborhood and see this and then go back and take 300 units, this is going to be about 450 cars, I would assume, adding to that. I would say, if your not going to fix the first -1 would say, fix the roads first if we are going to go forward, otherwise we take a hard look at this and decide is this the best thing to go into this area. The last thing that I would just say, I have 60 signatures right now. Half the people we talked to we got Meridian Planning and Wing Committee Special Meeting August 25, 1999 Page 36 Meridian Greens, Ravens Hill and all these just barely heard about it. We took Sportsman Pointe barely canvassed it. We've got more people that want to sign in, we just did not have the time yet, because they just heard about it. There is 60 signatures here opposing it. Lastly, I'd like to ask, in all seriousness if somebody lived in Sportsman Pointe that was building this project, would they be seriously for this project or not—if they had kids and knowing the traffic that is here. I think you need to think hard about that. I think there is a better place to put this. Maybe across the freeway by some business centers and so on. Thanks. Barbeiro: Mr. Henze. The report prepared by the Joint School District No. 2, the Meridian School District, tells us that this project would produce 99 elementary aged children, 75 middle age, middle age school children and 68 senior high school children. On the assumption that the pre school children would have about 50, they projected 300 children would be in this complex. I am sure that the developer planned it and is aware of that. Certainly, he has designed a complex that is child friendly and child design. Your statements are that it is not and it is (inaudible) and it would cause a problem. Henze: The apartment complex looks very nice from what we are seeing here. What I am saying is the roads outside it are not ready to handle this. It's just obvious that if people can't make that turn on Locust Grove on to Overland, they are going to cut through Sportsman Pointe if there is so much traffic. I don't think just a center turn lane —even before this came in, you can correct me if I am wrong, I heard that Overland was going to go to 5 lanes because of traffic problems. Then that brings up another issue and that is elementary schools with all those kids. Barbeiro: I misunderstood then. Your concern was not the apartment complex— Henze: Not the apartment complex, the traffic around it. Yeah it looks like a nice apartment complex. Barbeiro: It is the cutting through Sportsman Pointe and the fear that the traffic would impact upon the children's life. Okay, thank you. Borup: Yes. Tima: Good evening. My name is Karen Tima and I live in Sportsman Pointe at 2122 Chesapeake. I am here to represent my family who are—we're opposed to this project. We opposed for a couple reasons. Emotionally I am opposed to it like most people because apartment dwellers are typically very trenzie in nature. We worry about the property values. We worry about the people that are going to be living near us that are not the homeowners like we are. That is emotionally and we can't base our decision on our emotion feelings. Factually I am worried about it because of the roads and because of the existing traffic problems out there all ready that is just going to get worse. All ready there are so many approved subdivisions that are still developing out there. We are going to have those influx of people then you add 600 cars all at once and this apartment complex and it just seems unreasonable that that area can take it. Usually, Meridian Planning and ring Committee Special Meeting August 25, 1999 Page 37 in the mornings when I leave for work, I turn on Locust Grove right on to Overland and get on the freeway. That is usually not too much of a problem because you only have to worry about the one lane of traffic turning on to Overland. Tonight, coming here, it was about 6:30 at night, I had to turn left on to Overland. That was a major problem. I had to worry about both lanes of traffic. It took me 12 minutes, I timed it specifically because I was coming here tonight. I timed it and it took me 12 minutes to turn from Locust Grove on to Overland to come here tonight. This is just going to get worse. I agree with my neighbor that we can not put the cart before the horse. That if we are going to improve the roads and widen them to handle the traffic we should do that first and then look at building a project of this nature. Thank you. Borup: Thank you. Any questions? Next. It seems we are finished with public comment. Applicant like to summarize or Commissioners have any questions or discussion before that comes up? Would you like to address them to them. Hatcher: Mr. Chairman, I do have a question or maybe a clarification from you. When was going through the documentation last, I could have swore I read some documentation that the improvement for Overland Road was bumped up to 2002? Does anybody else know where that documentation is or am I getting my facts mixed up. I read something along the lines— Borup: Did you find it there? Hatcher: Yeah, Tom just showed it to me. Overland Road is improved with the two lane street section with no curb, gutter or sidewalk abutting the site. Overland Road between SH69 and Locust Grove is listed as funded in the district's 5 year work program for 2002. So, it looks like ACHD is all ready implemented the improvement of Overland Road in 2 years. A funded project which means it is a go. Borup: So your saying that maybe the horse is before the cart. Hatcher: What I am saying through design considerations and through permit processes, through construction time that the particular proposed development probably will not even be occupied or occupier until the said time that Overland is also improved. The traffic issue might be a mute issue. Borup: Okay, thank you. Just for the record the quotation that quotation that Commissioner Hatcher read is from the ACHD report on page 2. Would the applicant like to make any final comment? Cook: Mr. Hatcher, I think you (inaudible) on point because I wish I could build it overnight. We are about a year and a half away, I think by the time—construction time—all most two years. That is a very good point. The rental issue—there is some of the things I wanted to tell the property owners. Meridian Planning andoing Committee Special Meeting August 25, 1999 Page 38 Borup: Mr. Cook, before you proceed there, as far as the city and commission, rental amounts is not a factor and perhaps Mr. Rossman, would you like to expound on that. Rossman: Thank you Mr. Chairman. This is not the first time this issue has come before this Commission. The question of subsidy or source of funding or the type of people that are going to be living in a particular project are not relevant issues for the Planning and Zoning Commission. Their decision is to be based on the project alone, irregardless of how the people are going to fund their monthly rent and if any of those issues come before the Commission or the appearance of that being a issue is put before this Commission, I would prefer that it not even become an issue during this proceeding. Cook: That is a very smart point to make cause you could be judged making a decision— Borup: What we're looking at the project, the layout, the design that's the things that— Cook: Let me just speak to that real quickly and you've had a long night and don't need anymore talk from developers. One thing that I wanted to say is that we own the development, so it is not like we sell this and move on. We have to keep and maintain it. It is one of those things. (Inaudible) has done a great study on —and a lot of the future planning issues on what apartment developments can do and how much green space they can provide and how they can help and be very friendly. The design and look here—this is my bias. I have looked at product—you will not see a product that I've seen yet in the Boise area that will look this good. This will be very outstanding and very well build development. When you see our elevations and renderings, I think you will agree with that. It will be very much of an asset to your community. It will also be a long term opportunity for you to grow with the community. Any questions. Hatcher: I have one question. Do you have available this evening any color renderings of the facility, particularly for the public. Cook: I don't, but give us 2 hours to go color. Hatcher: We have ours in our information. Cook: Do you want us to describe a little bit about that to give you somewhat of a feeling. I think that is important. Hatcher: I don't think that is necessary. I've got a good feel. Cook: It is high end stuff. Are you in the construction business. Hatcher: Yes, I am a licensed architect. Meridian Planning andaing Committee Special Meeting 10 August 25, 1999 Page 39 Cook: Well then you asked the important question before about stucco and ours is (inaudible). Borup: Mr. Cook. Could you repeat that answer for the record. Rossman: It doesn't get picked up on the microphone, so it needs to be repeated into the microphone. Cook: There will be culture stone veneer and cedar batton board. We will have no synthetic stucco on the project proposed. Barbeiro: Mr. Cook the point that you made about you intend to hold the property, it is customary in many, many large scale apartment complexes to build it quickly, build it cheaply, fill it up and dump it. I use that word openly. It is not your intend to do that. You intend to hold the property as an investment. Cook: Council made me require I can't go into all my financial reasoning behind that, but I will tell you this our profit margin is over the long term haul. By dumping it, we can not sell it especially with the things we want to do. We can not sell it. Our profit is how well we manage it and maintain it over the long period. Barbeiro: Your aware that Mr. Henze brought us 60 signed signatures opposing your project. While it is not left to this commission to tell you what to do, the mirror fact that your going to hold the property would be an item that I would very much impress upon the neighbors because they have all seen built, fill and dump properties in the past. Cook: I have never been in a meeting yet where everybody's has wanted an apartment development. I've—and I feel the pain that people—I've been in every community that you can think of over this issue. I can look at you straight in the face and tell you that we have never—we've gone in sometimes with planning and zoning and city council's having a very difficult time and have shown them over the long period that we have actually changed the viewpoint of that issue. It's—right now you come up on some trailers and what have you and sort of a —this is going to be a green looking very impressive piece of property that will be maintained. It can not—I can feel their pain, but I think that I can tell you that they will see a development that will be very beautiful. I have not seen anything of this caliber as we have traveled through here. I know you are contractors and I may have offended you. Just the outside looks-- I better shut up now. Thank you. Rossman: I don't think Tom has any apartment projects on this agenda at this point. Barbeiro: No we don't do multi housing anywhere. Borup: Any other questions for Mr. Cook? Meridian Planning andwing Committee Special Meeting 0 August 25, 1999 Page 40 Rossman: I guess Mr. Chairman I still would make one clarification. When I said funding was irrelevant to this issue, I did not mean developer funding was irrelevant. Funding for the rental subsidy for the –the payment of rents by these particular people that would be living in these facilities is a irrelevant issue. The source of the concerns are (inaudible) in the Federal Fair Housing Act, if anybody has particular interest. Henze: A clarification. We have not seen what they look like and I would say that we need to maintain—if you go between Meridian Greens and Sportsman Pointe you have to have certain roof designs between the two so there is continuity. I am only saying I did not understand his first comments he was making. He said were having this apartment complex and then he made some side note about rent (inaudible). I did not understand what he was talking about. The thing is, are we going to have –is it going to look as nice, basically. Rossman: I was not singling you out sir. I was just –the developer did open the issue and I wanted to make that clarification so the record is clear on that. Barbeiro: With regards to the design, I want to ask Mr. Cook if he had some elevations he could provide for the two residents right now so they could see what it is. Obviously, it will not be in color, but-, Also, if I may I wanted to ask staff—Bruce, as far as you know with regards to planning in that area do you know if a stop light there at Locust Grove and Overland. Is that not in the—a part of that 2002 plan. Borup: No it's not or no you don't know? (?): We do not know if it's in the plan to put that stop light in. Barbeiro: Back to Mr. Henze. If a stop light were there at Locust Grove and Overland, would that be enough to alleviate most of your concerns about traffic passing through Sportsman Pointe? Henze: My points on traffic is when it's built let it come—or then we can see it. The point is are we talking about possibilities or solutions. Do we have hard solutions here. Are we talking about maybe this will happen. Borup: Sir it is funded. The money is there. Henze: I also heard it was funded but some of the funds will be taken for the Flying Y. That is why a possibility of— Borup: That's two different entity's. This is Ada County Highway District. Henze: (Off and on inaudible discussion) Regarding the overpass—that was all part of it—we make it better yes. Meridian Planning and King Committee Special Meeting August 25, 1999 Page 41 Hatcher: I think what the public needs to know is that the widening of Overland Road to five lanes is a funded project and is scheduled to be built in 2002. ACHD does not apply funds to a project unless it's going to be done, because their very strict with their money. There is always a chance that things get delayed. None of us can prevent that. The way things are set up right now, the way things are scheduled, that road will be 5 lanes in the year 2002. Barbeiro: With regards to the overpass at Locust Grove, that is not in the seven year plan. Borup: It has been included but it is not funded. Just 2 weeks ago. It has been included in the transportation improvement plan. Barbeiro: (Inaudible) Borup: Well it was added to the Ada County TIP, but again no date, but it has been moved up. It is going to be soon than it was. There was one comment on the project itself. Two comments I had. One on the project itself. The elevations we have are probably some of the nicest I think this Commission has seen and the other comment on the density, normally projects request an R-40. This is an R-15. They are not looking at filling up the space and maxing it out. They've provided a lot of open space and I think just by the zoning that they have requested demonstrates that. That was one of the questions they had on the projects without being able to see the whole thing. Commissioners. Any other questions or comments? We have an open public hearing on— Tima: Can I make another comment? I am curious that there is feasibility of doing a study on what impact these additional families will have on the school system and the schools that are currently being fed from that area. Borup: The school has all ready done that. Tima: And what is the results? Borup: There is an impact. They are adding children to the schools. It is on the ACHD report. Barbeiro: Even though we are in a difficult position and need your help in dealing with the impact of growth on schools, we will approve this development. Jim Carbury, Administer of Support Services, Meridian School District. I did say the impact was 99 elementary age students, 75 middle school and 68 senior high school students. Freckleton: Mr. Chairman, members of the Commission. We were just discussing the 2002 five lane improvement. Typically, ACHD will put a project on to the 5 year plan. That doesn't necessarily mean when they say 2002, that that road going to be built in 2002. They go into a design phase. They have land acquisition. Right of way Meridian Planning and *ing Committee Special Meeting August 25, 1999 Page 42 acquisition. Then they set a construction schedule. I don't know exactly when it is going to be built but I doubt that the 2002 date that they put in their report is actual constructed. Borup: I think that is accurate that the one difference here is in their 5 year plan, they have funded and unfunded. The unfunded are the ones that really can get pushed back. The one think that is does have in its favor is apparently in the funded category. Freckleton: Right, right. But that is a point that maybe we should clarify through ACHD. Borup: Yeah, that's not saying 2002 instantly going to be there. Freckleton: Additionally, I think that when a road reaches the level of serviceability that it requires 5 lanes, I thin that you can anticipate that signalization at the intersections and especially if we are talking overpass on Locust Grove. Borup: That's what I would expect too. I wish they were here to ask that, but I think that is a good question for ACHD. De Weerd: Mr. Chairman, I was at a meeting just last week that ACHD committed to the City of Meridian that Overland was a priority and that they would meet their plan date if not better it. They do see it as a high priority. In fact, that is why they have taken it off the truck route list. Until those improvements can be made, it's left alone. Borup: Okay. It all sounds encouraging—at least as far as the road. Okay Commissioners. We do have an open public hearing. De Weerd: Mr. Chairman, if staff has no further comment I would move that we close the public hearing. Barbeiro: Second the motion. MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES Borup: Commissioners, what is your pleasure. Barbeiro: Mr. Chairman, I am —1 do not wish to dismiss the 60 signatures and the extensive work that the neighbors have done. I would request that the developer make some efforts to go out into the neighborhood and to address -1 believe the signatures are public knowledge now or public record and the developer will have access to those. Is that correct? While we can not require that he send out notes and explanations of the project to each of the signatures, so that each of those people are aware of what the project is. Discussions of what we discussed here today and that you could walk in as a good neighbor as opposed to any sort of adversarial relationship that you may have with the neighbors. Is that a reasonable request. With that I defer to the other Commissioners for any other— Meridian Planning andaing Committee Special Meeting August 25, 1999 Page 43 Borup: Okay, comments. Barbeiro: I wish to make a motion that we recommend this project with staff comments and request of the developer acknowledge and address these people who have signed a petition and recommend this to City Council. Rossman: Mr. Chairman. If I may make two clarifications. One is I don't believe that your—that was a request that you put into your motion rather than a condition that they contact these people. Barbeiro: I don't believe that we are allowed to do that. Rossman: I would agree. Number two. We are just dealing with Annexation and Zoning at this point. Borup: That was your motion for the annexation and zoning? Barbeiro: Yes Sir. Borup: We have a motion. Do we have a second. Hatcher: I second it. Borup: We have a motion and a second to recommend approval of annexation and zoning. All in favor? MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES Freckleton: Mr. Chairman. Borup: Mr. Freckleton. Freckleton: Sorry to keep doing this. One item on the annexation and zoning that I would like to direct to the applicant is the issue regarding the legal descriptions. Borup: Oh, I wrote a note on that. I am sorry I did not follow through. Go ahead. Freckleton: I would like to get that cleared up before we go to City Council. It just kind of stream lines things through them with no hold ups. The City Attorney wanting to get a hold of me wanting to know if I have received the proper legals, etc. If we can get those ahead of the hearing, it really helps. (Inaudible discussion) Meridian Planning and sing Committee Special Meeting 0 August 25, 1999 Page 44 Borup: It is going to be at least a month. Sir you still have one more. We took care of annexation. We still have a conditional use permit. ITEM NUMBER 6: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR 300 UNITS OF MULTI -FAMILY HOMES BY SUNDANCE, LLC—NORTH OF OVERLAND ROAD AND WEST OF LOCUST GROVE: Borup: Staff any additional comments? Hawkins: Request that our previous report be incorporated into this Item. Borup: Thank you. Rossman: Mr. Chairman if I might make one more comment. To clarify whether or not as it relates to Items 5 and 6 whether the previous testimony at the previous public hearing, was there a previous public hearing on this one? That that be incorporated into this preceding. Borup: Do you need a motion to that effect or just a statement. Rossman: No, just needs to be put on the record. Borup: Okay. For the record, we wish to incorporate all previous public testimony and comment from previous hearings into tonight's hearing. Thank you. Applicant, would you like to come forward and—again you understood what we just did. The other was annexation and zoning. Before we can do a conditional use permit on property, it needs to be in the city. Cook: Right. That is a good idea. Now we want to talk about the zoning issue. Borup: Well no. We've handled the zoning now we are talking about the project itself. We realize that you have all ready addressed that and the questions have addressed that. I don't know that there is anything new that you have to add, but this is your opportunity. Cook: Yeah, I have extensive notes here on that part! No I don't. Borup: Okay, you did not have anything more on the project then. While you are up here Mr. Cook again this is relating to the previous one, but you understood Mr. Freckleton's question on the legal description for that other parcel. That is also a zoning change on it. Okay, thank you. Any other questions from the Commission. De Weerd: I had some questions about the project itself. Borup: For Mr. Cook? Meridian Planning and *ing Committee Special Meeting • August 25, 1999 Page 45 De Weerd: For whom ever he would designate. They are on signage and on staff's comments, page 5 it refers to storage areas provided on site. Bennett: Keith Bennett. Regarding signage, we are proposing just one monument sign within the same 35 foot set backs on the corner of Locust and Overland that would be in a monument setting in the landscape. Any other signage there may be signage for addressing or whatever, but for project sign, that would be it. As far as storage, we typically in other developments have not had a major requirement of the tenants to have the storage we're referring to in the report if I am correct, is Bone Camper Storage, however we have designated when we did not continue this road an area that could accommodate that and be screened off in the back corner for that purpose. Hatcher: For a 300 facility, just from where I sit, seems a rather small storage area. I would make comment or recommendation that you look at possibly enlarging that space because your going to have a lot more RV's and stuff — Cook: Peter Cook. We handle that strongly through our CC&R's and usually do not allow that storage on site and ask them to find places to store that. We have found when that does occur, no matter how much space you have, it never looks good. We have a very clean, high profile. We have a hard time with how covered parking effect the development, but we know a lot of people like it for the market value. So try to just move that off site and don't allow it in our CC&R's. That is how we have handled it and don't try to solve that issue on that side, because—what do you think? Hatcher: It doesn't matter what I think. Well, not with the way you do your business. If you can maintain the storage issue off site, I don't have a problem with the limited amount shown. I guess I would just have to rely on your work that that's the way it is to be conducted. Cook: Again, if you take our trend -60 per cent, all most 85 per cent of our business is curb appeal. I don't want any really basically from the freeway, someone looking in and seeing somebody's old Winnebago out there and a bunch of junk. I don't want to maintain it. I don't have to go through that process so I just say, thank you very much and by the way that goes out of here. That is in their lease. That's how we really handle that issue. We don't try to (inaudible) cause I don't think you can. Barbeiro: Mr. Chairman, Mr. Cook you said CC&R's being for a purpose. Cook: Your right and I corrected myself by saying a rental agreement. That was a good catch. You guys are tough. Barbeiro: Maybe your going to turn them into condo's and sell them. Now we've got a whole new thing going. And your going to have a lot more neighbors over — De Weerd: Mr. Chairman, I have a couple more questions for Mr. Bennett. It would have in regard to lighting in your interior, pathways and you amenities. Meridian Planning andwing Committee Special Meeting • August 25, 1999 Page 46 Bennett: There obviously would be site lighting in the parking areas and it would be directly down as the staff has recommended so would not impede and cross into the glare of 184 or the surrounding properties. Regarding our path system that we have developed that meets the 5 foot sidewalk criteria, we would have interior pedestrian level lighting that would meet there as well as each building would have it's entry lighting as well. De Weerd: And you dumpster areas, are those screens. Bennett: Yes there dumpsters. There are shown strategically placed throughout the site. As you see, there would be a screen enclosure. Yes. De Weerd: I guess my last question would be for staff for drainage issues. Have those been adequately answered? Freckleton: Mr. Chairman, Commissioner De Weerd, the drainage issue has been addressed in our staff comments. They are required to submit a drainage plan that is designed by a licensed architect or engineer. There are certain guidelines that we can provide to the applicant as far as what we require for separation criteria to ground water. The Health Department also recommends using surface swales whenever possible for pretreatment. These type of things can be designed into the landscape features and actually look quite attractive. I think we are adequately covered and I think we can work with the applicant on that. De Weerd: Okay. And for Brad I guess did they respond to your parking issue—the depth and the width. Hawkins: Can you point out which number that is? De Weerd: I don't know. I took notes from the last meeting so I don't know where it would be in your comments. Oh, I believe that was a verbal reference by Shari Stiles, if I remember right. I was not at that meeting, but was referring to the city requirement for 9 foot wide, 19 deep stalls which I think you may have reflected a foot short -18 or 17, 1 don't know if that was a overhang issue there. Bennett: And in response to that I would say that we would meet all city parking requirements. Meaning the 9 by 19 stall would be included in the design. De Weerd: Okay, thank you. Borup: Any other questions? Barbeiro: Is it Karen Tima. I had a question for her if I may please. With regards to the 60 signatures from your neighbors. The discussions of the fears that the traffic passing through Sportsman Pointe, the widening of the road and the existence of this project Meridian Planning andaing Committee Special Meeting 0 August 25, 1999 Page 47 with regards to the additional children in the school district. We do know the school district, while reluctant, did give their approval for that. We do know that while it may not be in 2002, very shortly after that, Overland Road will be widened. Be barely assured, and this is an assumption, that there will be a stop light at Overland and Locust Grove, based upon the amount of traffic especially with this addition of this item here, you have an apartment complex that appears to be very well designed architecturally, fairly low density architectural (inaudible) and a complex that is very, very child friendly. Have the questions and concerns that you had been addresses in such that your fears or concerns about this project have lessened a great deal or are you still equally adamant about not having the project in your neighborhood. Tima: I think my concerns were addresses adequately with reservation. I am still concerned that the apartment complex will be built and ready for occupancy and filled up quickly before the road gets widened by maybe a year. Mr. Cook has stated that they are looking at maybe a year and a half. We are told that the road widening is set to begin in the year 2000, but you can not necessarily count on that. I am thinking even 6 months to a year can be havoc. I worry about safety on the road. I have driven off the road once and into the ditch because a car was passing a tractor that was going down Overland Road and was headed straight for me and I drove into the ditch instead of letting him drive into me. I fear that that type of thing will happen. I am concerned still that the road will be not happen in time and that the apartment complex will happen first. That is my main concern. Barbeiro: Thank you. I have no further questions Mr. Chairman. Borup: Any other Commissioners? Do we have any motions? Barbeiro: Mr. Chairman I move we close the public hearing. I withdraw my motion. Henze: The other thing we need to look out for is I don't know how apartment complex have done next to freeways where now I get the idea it is a very high end high nice looking apartment complex. But it sitting right on the freeway and I don't know if I want to pay top rent for an apartment building on a freeway. As a Commission and your approving this I think you need to keep in your mind, what happened if it doesn't get the rent they want. They your going to see dilapidation. You going to see dump. Borup: Your Mr. Adkins, right? No. ******END OF SIDE 4****** Hatcher: Depending on how the developer and his team address that very issue, they could successfully or very inadequately deal with that problem. I would highly suggest that you take a look at the residential subdivision that is east of Cloverdale on the north side of the freeway. That residential subdivision is only 3 years old, I believe. It was built with a birm and a fence and high density fast growing vegetation which is a very Meridian Planning and9ning Committee Special Meeting 0 August 25, 1999 Page 48 effective sound buffer. In any subdivision Sportsman Pointe would benefit greatly besides just the apartment complex itself. Tina: I'm sorry, I though of one more comment. Is there any way that we can have—be known from the developer what their record is of maintaining the ownership of their apartment buildings. He states that their intention but I am in business and I have heard that a lot. I was just wondering if there a way we can get some information from them on what their record is. Barbeiro: You've been fibbed to by a developer. Imagine that. What I might add to what we had a provisos recommendation to City Council, I would ask that the developers as a part of their information packet include a record of properties that they have developed in the past and continue to maintain and perhaps even offer a reference or two where they can make phone calls. Borup: Mr. Cook you can leave that information and phone number and address for something they can contact you. Cook: What I am thinking—one more thing. I think what we are going to do is just invite everybody around. Your right. I agree, a lot of business people tell you that. We have a long reference of banks. A long reference of mayor's, city council's, planning and zoning which we will submit for our references. We own over 2000 plus units and never sold one. We've been in business 15 plus years. Not to deal with what the rents are but the funding of this will be by Sun America. Basically what happens it's a multi billion dollar operation. It doesn't matter. They won't let it fail. That is our strong financial suit. We don't do into a local bank. We are supported by a major corporation. One of the biggest in the country. That should make you feel better. Borup: So at this point— De Weerd: Mr. Chairman, I move that we close the public hearing. Barbeiro: I second the motion. Borup: All in favor? MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES Borup: Thank you. What's next. Was the motion you started to make earlier? Barbeiro: Yes it was. Borup: Do we have a motion or discussion before. I like discussion. De Weerd: I have no comments. Meridian Planning and*ing Committee Special Meeting 0 August 25, 1999 Page 49 Hatcher: I have none. Borup: Mr. Barbeiro, you've got to carry the discussion load. Barbeiro: I want to reference back to the 60 people who signed off on a petition and acknowledge those people. Acknowledge Mr. Henze and Mrs. Tima on their coming here and their discussions and issues they brought before us that were very timely. Mr. Cook, you have taken what amounts to a crappy piece of land and done some very good work with it. It is amazing that you can put something so well set in a position that is –1 would never have envisioned putting something like that on the lot that you have. My compliments to you on that and I do hope that you can work it with the neighbors and come up with a very, very good information packet and make them feel better about what you are doing. I'm also very pleased that you are not a build, fill and dump developer. That you maintain your properties and take pride in your properties and what it amounts to, certainly you want your children to say my father built this. My father owns this. As you and you entire team seem to take a great deal of pride in what you done. My compliments on that. Borup: Anything else? Okay. So we can either sit here or make a motion. Hatcher: Mr. Chairman, I move that we approve to City Council the recommend to City Council the condition use permit for 300 multi -family home by Sundance, LLC with one additional stipulation to what staff has all ready added. I would like the developer to seriously look at and incorporate within his drawings the proper sound buffers along the freeway. It is only to his own benefit that that be adequately done for his future tenants and for the future value of the community and the area. Rossman: Mr. Chairman, is that a condition or a request? Hatcher: If I could make it a condition, I would make it a condition. Rossman: Sound buffering—nothing would prevent you from making that a condition. If you want to make that a condition, you can certainly include that in you motion. Hatcher: I would include in the motion as a condition for recommendation. Borup: Their site plan shows solid plantings all along the freeway now. Hatcher: Absolutely. They are talking about a solid vynal fence. They are showing growth and not showing any birms. I think it is a minor issue that can be addressed with going with a preliminary plat to final construction documents. I just want it to be on record that it is a requirement and not go off of what we discussed tonight just verbal agreements. Rossman: Sir, the public hearing has been closed. Meridian Planning andaing Committee Special Meeting August 25, 1999 Page 50 De Weerd: I second that. Borup: I thought I heard a nod from the applicant that that would probably be okay. We have a motion and a second. All in favor? MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES. Borup: Mr. Bennett. Anything presented needs to be entered in for public record. It will be here next time for you to use. It will go to the City Council along with the recommendation. For the record, we've had one more Commissioner join us, Mr. Kent Brown is not in attendance. ITEM NUMBER 7. PUBLIC HEARING: COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT FOR TERRACE LAWN MEMORIAL GARDENS, INC. BY CLARK DEVELOPMENT/BILL CLARK -4000 BLOCK FAIRVIEW AVENUE BETWEEN EAGLE ROAD & CLOVERDALE: Borup: Commissioners, I am sure that we all realize that we do have a special next week to specifically address Comprehensive Plan changes. De Weerd: Mr. Chairman that is on September 30tH Borup: I'm sorry. I keep wanting to move that up a month. Next month, not next week. Staff who is doing the presentation—Brad is? Steve, I mean. This double teaming gets me confused, I'm sorry. Siddoway: Mr. Chairman and Commissioners, this application before you at this time is a request by Clark Development for a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to change land use from single family residential to mixed residential. It is an 11.76 acre parcel. It's location is south of Fairview Avenue between Eagle Road and Cloverdale Road. To give you a little orientation, Crossroad Subdivision is here to the west of the parcel. North of the parcel is another proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment that would expand the Family Center, which is currently being developed here. This area has the Terrace Lawn Memorial Gardens in it. There is a large parcel to the south that is owned by the Seventh Day Adventist Church and the parcel to the east is in the Boise impact area, but is zoned or has a future land use designation as medium density residential with 15 dwelling units per acre. It is currently vacant. The City of Meridian impact area follows the line right here so the east edge of this parcel is also the east edge of our impact area. You have before you some initial comments from staff which you just received tonight as well as the applicant. I will briefly just hit the highlights for you. Our current Comprehensive Plan designates this area as single family residential currently. This proposal is to change it for mixed residential. Publics Works Dept. has preliminary plans for a domestic water well in this area and Bruce Freckleton may want to address that issue in a little more detail when I am finished. The applicant does have a proposed concept plan for this parcel, which I am sure he will go into in more detail. I will show it here. It is for multi -family dwelling apartment complex.

Meridian Planning and1wing Commission Meeting July 13, 1999 Page 40 De Weerd: Well Mr. Chairman. I would just move that we recommend approval for the request for a conditional use permit for the Jackson's Food Stores to include staff comments. Borup: Staff written and verbal comments. She specifically added the signage to her written comment. De Weerd: And that's been addressed? Okay. I would do that. MacCoy: Okay do you want to restate all that? De Weerd: I move that we recommend approval for the conditional use permit for Jackson's Food Stores to include written and verbal staff comments. Borup: Second. MacCoy: Any discussion? All in favor? MOTION CARRIED. ALLY AYES. MacCoy: All right all 3 ayes have it. Thank you. Looking at the clock right now, we try to recess between 9 and 9:30 and it is 9:15 right now. We'll take a 10 minute break and come back and we will pick up with Item 11. MacCoy: Shari, you ready? Stiles: Yes sir. MacCoy: We are going to reconvene now and it is now almost 9:30. We are at Item 11. I had made an announcement earlier this will be continued anyway. ITEM 11. PUBLIC HEARING: REQUEST FOR ANNEXATION AND ZONING OF 20.35 ACRES (FOR R-15 ZONING)OF LAND FOR PROPOSED 300 UNITS OF MULTI -FAMILY RENTALS SUNDANCE, LLC—NORTH OF OVERLAND ROAD AND WEST OF LOCUST GROVE ROAD. MacCoy: Okay, Shari? Any comments? What do you want to tell us? Stiles: Mr. Chairman, Commissioner's, in addition to the comments at the beginning of this meeting regarding sewer issues with the following public hearings, we have not made any sites specific comments on this application and pending our receipt of the computer model results, we would ask this be continued to a date certain. Meridian Planning andoing Commission Meeting 0 July 13, 1999 Page 41 MacCoy: We don't have a date though, right? That's what I want to find out. We can do August 10th or we go into something else. De Weerd: What date certain are you recommending? MacCoy: Yeah, or do we even have any idea what we are going to do? Your awful quite over there. You think about it. Stiles: At this point, it's impacting both of them equally, so unless there were a new – totally new date, I don't have any suggestions. MacCoy: Okay, well, if you come up with some good brain— De Weerd: Oh, so your recommending then that perhaps another date be set to hear these specific ones. MacCoy: But we don't know. If you don't have the information, you can't do anything. Mr. Chairman on (inaudible) I think Shad's referring to our schedule is very loaded so when you impact by continuing it to one of our regular meetings, it just maybe very loaded that evening too. She was referring to maybe a possible special meeting date, or something of that nature. We're just getting rolled over (inaudible). MacCoy: On staff here right now, we had quite a discussion on this earlier this evening trying to pick more dates because we know we're loaded. We got another date in this month and we've got August 10 and August something else and so it goes. That's what she said at that time, a special meeting we've got to name one. All right, she's made her statement, is there anyone here representing this annexation and zoning project? Okay, since this is all going to be on tape, we going to continue this. Anybody here like to make a statement at this time so they are on record for this project—on the positive side. On the negative side. All right. I am going to hit somebody's nerve here pretty soon. Hensey: David Hensey, 2298 Weimaraner. De Weerd: Excuse me sir. I think we need to officially open the public hearing. MacCoy: I did. De Weerd: Did you. Sorry, we missed that. Hensey: I you know the south side of the freeway 1-84 is the land of no street light and one lane freeways, no turn lanes what so ever. With the high growth of the subdivisions in that area, the traffic has become increasingly worse. Meridian Planning andiwing Commission Meeting July 13, 1999 Page 42 Borup: Sir, I'm not sure we got your name for the record. Hensey: David Hensey. MacCoy: He gave that. Borup: Counsel did not get it down. Hensey: You know, that where there is a street light at Meridian and Overland, that is the most congested area in town. If you are trying to get off the freeway and get up here, and what the main what I have done over the last couple days since we really didn't hear about this is I took a paper out to 100 units in the Sportsman Point Subdivision and we received signatures from, at this point, 25 back, given only 2 days, opposing this. The main issue talking to these people is traffic. This is a 300 unit development, 1.5 cars, you've got 450 cars potentially coming in and out of this. Secondly, there are no parks on our side of the freeway. The Sportsman Point Subdivision does have a park. How do you police that. If needed, how do you police that. Schools are overloaded on our side too. Anything like this where you have a high number of units coming in immediately is going to have a severe impact. We feel that, talking to a lot of people in the subdivision, this area is more suitable for commercial, like they had before with the tractors—John Deere and (inaudible) which actually (inaudible) favorable for the area. They put nice birms up. You know being in a area right along the freeway, prime freeway advertising space, we feel that the Council should look at the opportunities of allowing that area for more of a commercial than a residential or apartment development. MacCoy: You raise a very good point. 1 live in the Meridian Green area. Same location and just for your quick information, on the south side of Overland we will have—that's all schooled for R-4 housing and a school, either elementary or a high school and one over on Eagle. The Overland is supposed to go to three lanes immediately. What that means, it's going to be some years I am sure. (Inaudible) for 5 lanes and we have discouraged the trucking operation you've seen signs for the last four companies that wanted to come in there because they wanted to end up not being like John Deere, not being like Caterpillar. Those are 8 to 5 type information work operation and they are fairly quiet. We don't want for all of you people, all of us impact hammers and paint fumes and everything else going in. We as a Commission this one and our Council as well as the Mayor, we've been trying to discourage anything like a trucking operation, but more like a John Deere. Your right. John Deere's a good partner. So we are working on your behalf, our behalf. I just wanted to let you know we are not sitting here dead in the water. Hensey: Is there submitting signatures or petitioning against this— MacCoy: You can do that. We're having an open public hearing— Meridian Planning andiaing Commission Meeting July 13, 1999 Page 43 Hensey: I am going to gather more. Would it be better another time to bring these back. MacCoy: You can bring them in the next time we have a meeting. In fact, I would advise you to do so. Hensey: At the rate we are getting we could take it to Raven Hill and the Salmon Rapids and easily come up with 500 against this. MacCoy: Very good. Go ahead and do it. Anyone else. Gaudette: I am Scott Gaudette. I live at 1391 E. Griffen, also in Sportsman Point Subdivision, immediately south of this proposed complex of apartments. I also agree with Dennis on many of the points we feel that this complex of apartments in mass in one small area, is just going to overwhelm the all ready very busy streets. As the, as it was mentioned, the sewer system is already over burdened, but there are so many things that are over burdened. We moved into this area from another area of Meridian because we liked the lifestyle. It's quiet, its peaceful. You had your normal neighborhood type of situations and our neighbors to the north of Overland Road, the low key commercial operations are very enjoyable, because they are low key. Their traffic is, like you said, 8 to 5 or whatever, but they are all intermittent. They never have in mass at 8 o'clock and in mass leaving at 5 o'clock, at the same time we are trying to come home and go to work—so and so forth. I feel that this apartment complex, with that many people, in such a small area is just going to really bottleneck that intersection up, not to mention also down at Eagle and Overland and Meridian and Overland. Just tonight coming here, there was a traffic jam almost a mile long. Going a long that line is that the subdivisions that are there, that are continually expanding plus the new subdivisions going in, are all ready going to give us more than enough traffic for the area. With this complex all in one spot, it's just going to stop the bottleneck. It is not going to be a bottle neck any more. It's going to be a cork in the bottle. MacCoy: It would be a gridlock, is what your talking about. Gaudette: Very much. I had a lot of notes going, but I —you know everything goes right along that line. We have a quality of life that we very greatly enjoy down in that area and all the subdivisions that are going in are still spread out so traffic can flow in several different directions. Once we get this here, there is only one direction to go. That's a very popular direction and I feel the congestion, even if in the future whenever that will happen, they expanded to 3 lanes, it's still not going to be quite enough. I know my wife has gotten into a serious accident near that intersection, about a couple hundred yards east of there, because of traffic and I know of many others that have also occurred there and this is just going to add to that, the safety the concerns and the hazards, future schools. I think the expansion and population of the area continue in the direction it is now going in that we don't burn it with apartment complexes. Meridian Planning andaing Commission Meeting July 13, 1999 Page 44 MacCoy: I think we are going to see a 5 lane before we see a 3 lane anyway because the ways things have been escalating, we are going to need it. Even though they are not going to build it for, they say for 3 and put the side boards in for the other two lanes, I think they are just going to do the job and be done with it. Gaudette: Right. And so many future projects we have plans to do this. How many plans don't we go through with the highway district. MacCoy: We are pushing real hard from this city here, because we say that we one of the —really—Overland is considered one of the worst things in Ada County now. I am glad to see that we finally got ourselves on top of the list. Gaudette: Waiting for the money to come in too. MacCoy: That's a fact. That's what it is, is money. That is what it comes down to. We are forced into that. Thanks for your comments. Any questions for him before he goes away? All right. Anyone else want to speak? McCoy: My name is Roger McCoy and I live at 1692 S. Sportsman Way. The first thing I'd like to comment on is the posting of the property—the legal notice to post it. We called you guys and you don't have any real recommendations, but the big for sale sign right here, you got a little 11 X17 notice telling us that these neighbors, I think right here, they did not get a legal notice in the mail and they also, I mean just looking ss a the street, they did not know until we told them. i think that if the property pgau like cities require then I think you would have a lot more people here tonight. I just don't think anybody even saw it. MacCoy: While we are on the subject, Shari isn't there a standard sign they put up. It's not very big. Stiles: Our typical sign is an 11 X 17 yellow poster. McCoy: It's 11 X 17 but it on a 4 X 8 or 6 X 8 real estate sign that's half way falling over, so it's hard to see. We've talked we've been talking to Greg with about our property taxes because they jacked them up this year, so asked him when we got this notice —one of the questions we asked him, what's this going to do to our property values. He said when the apartment complex goes in and we'll come out and probably your property tax will go down because you values go down because of it. It was an upscale apartment complex, I think it would probably help buffer the freeway noise, but you know they are not going to be putting an upscale apartment complex next to the freeway. We are adamantly opposed to it. We think it would deplete the property values in the area. MacCoy: I would suggest that like your partner here it is --collect your signatures and if you have a real feeling for it, write a letter. Include that too. It all comes into the record. Meridian Planning and sing Commission Meeting July 13, 1999 Page 45 McCoy: Well, my wife told his wife and that how they they didn't even know about it till then. That's how we got the signatures. De Weerd: That's great networking. McCoy: That's all I have. MacCoy: Anyone else? Sivalon: Ted Sivalon. I live at 2179 S. Weimaraner. My may concern besides what my neighbors brought up was what type of apartment complex this was going to be. I don't see too many people wanting to live next to a freeway as well as Coca-Cola Distributorship and things of that nature. So if it turns into —you know, is it going to be vacant? Are they going to have enough people even wanting to live there. Are we going to have vacant housing that is going to maybe bring not such good neighbors coming in and what also is going to happen with the spill over of all these people needing some place for recreation or something of that nature. Are they going to be coming into our subdivision overloading our park. Our park is pretty small. How do we go about dealing with that? De Weerd: I might make one comment. The plan will be, is available for you to come and look at. They have pictures of what the building will look like, the layout. They have a lot of open space. They have a lot of amenities that if you look at the plan, you will see it's probably one of the nicer complexes I've ever seen proposed in Meridian. That's just to respond, I don't think it's lower end by what amenities their providing and the look of their building. You might want to take a look at that. It is available on public record, just so when this is continued to, you can have a chance to look at it and get your questions in order. Sivalon: I don't want to be confrontational but 1 just found out about this from my neighbor, so we have not had the opportunity, but you can make a real beautiful complex, you know but you stick it on a freeway I just don't see too many people wanting to really live on a freeway. MacCoy: I imagine there going to have a buffer zone anyway of some type. I don't know what it is going to be, but we will be looking at that. Commissioner De Weerd is right. You should take a look at the material. Sivalon: Right. I live all the way to the last row of houses in the Sportsman Point Subdivision and we can even hear the freeway from back there. Some ways, it may be nice, cause maybe that would stop some of the noise for us, but they'd be right on the front line. MacCoy: Thank you. Anyone else? Yes, come on. Meridian Planning and sing Commission Meeting July 13, 1999 Page 46 McCoy: Barbara McCoy, 1692 S. Sportsman. I just wanted to reiterate that this whole area—they are very nice home, including Meridian Greens, Sportsman Point all those are not the upper, upper end homes as Meridian Greens, but very nice homes. There are no apartment complexes in the area right now. I believe that putting one in there would deplete the value of the whole area. Right now it is a very attractive area for many people that come (inaudible) seeing that what an apartment complex may reduce the value of the whole area. MacCoy: Thank you very much. Johnson: My name is Cole Johnson, 2122 South Chesapeake Avenue in Sportsman Point. The main problem, my wife and I oppose this very much, one of the main problems is that most people who go into apartments are transient of nature. In other words they don't have ownership. You get more criminal activity. You get more of the younger people and we think it would impact our area very negatively, impact our schools negatively, impact our traffic very negatively and right now traffic is so bad that they all ready have had to lower the speed limits on Overland. What is going to happen if we add 450 more cars at 8 o'clock in the moming-7:30 in the morning, 5 o'clock at night. It's a very big problem. Again, I believe we got our notice from friends over there in Sportsman's Point. We just want to reiterate our opposition to any apartment complex coming into our area. MacCoy: Any other hands? All right, Commissioner's. De Weerd: Well it sound like they have a great network going and we will give you a date tonight so you will be able to continue that networking and get your neighbors out. I do think we need to set a date specific and if it's looking at the two August meetings are going to be over -burdened, perhaps we need to look at a third date in August. MacCoy: I'm not sure what we've got for available space cause we will be in this room. De Weerd: Well then we need to look at an alternate date. Do we get over time. Do we get any time? Borup: I have a question for staff. Do we have any idea on the ACHD report? MacCoy: 1 don't think so on this one. Borup: It's not in our packet. I did not know if they made a statement that it's coming. I assume we'll probably have it by the next meeting though. Stiles: Yes. I don't have anything in my packet as far as a report from ACRD. Meridian Planning and Ging Commission Meeting 0 July 13, 1999 Page 47 Borup: There has been no communication from them? Do you know whether they have scheduled their meetings with the applicant? Stiles: I believe they had a tech review with them but I do not have that report. I didn't attend that meeting. Borup: Guess we'll find out next time. Stiles: We do want to get their report and to have plenty of time for Brad Watson to complete his sewer analysis. De Weerd: So, we probably looking September. MacCoy: Right. Shari, we have one August 29. De Weerd: If you have a date in mind, will you please state it. MacCoy: 1 am trying to get that down right now. De Weerd: I met for Shari. They are going no ---yes. MacCoy: I know but I am trying because one of the things she and I discussed is you know she asked what do I think of this date—well we've got everybody here that we should be able to talk to so we ought do it. The 29th of this month of have a meeting at 6 o'clock in this room. The 10th, which is a Tuesday night we have a meeting here at 7:00 PM, which is our typical time for us. Then on the 25th we've got a meeting at 6 o'clock that is two each month. Now Shari, is there any way we could horse shoe something else into this time period --we are at the first part of July. i hate to think we go clear into September. I know we are booking things all ready. In fact we are booking things up to October right now, I see. Stiles: Without a schedule from the City Clerk to know when this facility is even available — I wouldn't— MacCoy: I thought you might had had something because I don't —it's too bad Angel left. I go to her and Brittany when she was here to get it because you told me that's where it was. Berg: Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission, I have a very busy schedule with the City Council dealing with budget issues. It seems to be every night this next two months are going to be pretty busy. MacCoy: It that right? We're really boxed in other words. Meridian Planning andaing Commission Meeting 0 July 13, 1999 Page 48 Berg: We are pretty boxed. The thing we tried to hold off is for the public to have interest in other issues that they don't have to pick and choose if they go to a P&Z meeting or City Council meeting. Some of these things can be related. The other thing is also, staff time to prepare all this meeting--- MacCoy: I realize that and that's the reason we are talking to Shari and staff—you know what fits in their category too. We've got the same thing with all the Commissioners too. Trying to get the time to do it. it's summertime. So Shari, do you think we are talking about September? Borup: How full is the schedule on the 25"'? You said 8 items, but— Stiles: ut Stiles: Probably 8, 9 possibly 10. MacCoy: All ready cause we are moving things over. Stiles: Are you all free from 3am to 8 am? MacCoy: No. Borup: Probably depends on how heavy those 10 items are. MacCoy: Well that's always the way, isn't it? Borup: Yeah. MacCoy: It's like to night. We're—we had 17, 18 items tonight coming up and we are going to get out of here lucky—but all we've done is back log to the future. 1 guess we can't figure a date yet, so let's move on. De Weerd: We need to. MacCoy; I was hoping that they'll think about it while we'll continue doing some of this Because— De Weerd: Thinking while we talk, okay? MacCoy: Where did we leave off here. We've got public hearing, Item 11 and its an annexation and zoning and it will be continued. We have heard from the public. Commissioner's is there a motion to continue this and move on. De Weerd: I would make a motion to continue if I had a date to continue it to. MacCoy: I can't help you. Meridian Planning anoning Commission Meeting July 13, 1999 Page 49 De Weerd: Okay then I will move to continue this public hearing for annexation and zoning for Sundance Village to August 25th. MacCoy: Shari, did I hear anything from you? Stiles: It really doesn't matter to us whether it's the 10th or the 25tH. We will be here. Borup: Second. MacCoy: All in favor? MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES MacCoy: So that's August 25th. (Inaudible) MacCoy: Last time it started at 6:00 in the room here. (Inaudible) MacCoy: Oh, we've had them before out in the street before. All right, picking up now, all in favor? Did I ask that question yet? Okay we're moving on to item 12. PUBLIC HEARING: REQUEST FOR CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR 300 UNITS OF MULTI -FAMILY RENTALS FOR PROPOSED SUNDANCE VILLAGE—BY SUNDANCE, LLC—NORTH OF OVERLAND ROAD & WEST OF LOCUST GROVE ROAD. MacCoy: Shari, do you want to make a statement now about what you've already made about. Stiles: We would like to incorporate our comments from the previous public hearing into this public hearing. MacCoy: Okay. Since we have not spokesman from Sundance, that takes care of that. The public which has spoken here just—or earlier from number 11—anybody here want to come up and again say –put your statement on record for Item 12 too. Also. If not it carried anyway. If not, then going back to the Commissioner's. De Weerd: Mr. Chairman I move that we continue the public hearing for request for condition use permit for Sundance Village to August 251H Borup: Second.

L. Voigt Development, the applicant requesting annexation into the City of Meridian, and preliminary plat and zoning approval for Sundance Subdivision. On April 17, 2001, less than the full City Council denied our client's requests on the sole basis that the sewer service is "not readily available." We are asking the full City Council to reconsider this matter. As you know, the Planning & Zoning Commission received recommendations of approval from both the Planning Department and Public Works staff. The Planning & Zoning Commission approved the applications unanimously. The issue for the City is its concern that no building occur until sewer is extended to Sundance Subdivision. Our client understands that concern, and is willing to ensure that there would be no building within Sundance Subdivision pending the extension of the sewer. That assurance can be given to the City at a reconsideration hearing. Our client has a long-standing relationship with the City of Meridian, and clearly desires to work with Meridian as hard as it always has to provide a well-planned addition to the community.

The applicant, Mr. Gary Voigt, recognizes the Council's desire to postpone development along the White Drain sewer trunk line until further progress is made. However, the applicant believes a deferral of the applications for 90 -days would have accomplished the same goal. If substantial progress has not been accomplished on the White Drain trunk line at the end of the 90 -days, the applicant would consent to another 90 -day deferral. Mr. Voigt has paid substantial application fees and has spent a considerable amount of time on the application. At the February 15, 2001, Planning and Zoning meeting we had recommendations for approval from both the Planning staff and the Public Works staff. The Planning and Zoning Commission, based on staffs recommendation, approved the project unanimously. Based on the positive recommendations that we received from City staff and the Planning and Zoning Commission we went forward with application to the City Council. The project was then recommended for denial by the Planning staff at the City Council hearing. The reversal of staff's recommendation was quite a surprise. We do not believe that adequate time and opportunity to resolve the Planning staffs issues has been provided for our project. This is another reason that we believe this item should be reconsidered at a future date so that we can meet with the Planning staff and try and resolve the issues they have with the project. If we are not given the additional opportunity to meet with staff then the fees and resources that went into the project will have been wasted. If you have any question or need additional information please call me at 344-9700.

The City Council takes judicial notice of its zoning, subdivisions and development ordinances codified at Title 11, Municipal Code of the City of Meridian, and all current zoning maps thereof, and the Comprehensive Plan of the City of Meridian adopted December 21, 1993, Ordinance No. 629, January 4,1994, and maps and the ordinance Establishing the Impact Area Boundary. 4. The property is approximately 70.72 acres in size and is located at the FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page 2 AND DECISION AND ORDER OF DENIAL / G.L.

RECEIVED MAR 19 2001 CITY OF MERIDIAN 1I L 7 LJ PSC DEVELOPMENT COMPANY Whiteley Mansion 132 South 600 East Salt Lake City, Utah Statement of Purpose When PSC was founded in 1984, we began with Iwo employees and an idea that we could work with public agencies and together successfully provide secure, high quality family apartment units. Since the and mpany has manages grown to hundreds over of 50 employees and now own affordable housing units. It is the philosophy of PSC that a company's success comes from its employees. The dedication and loyalty of PSC's employees is reflected by our growth and success in such a short period of time. Our continued advancement and prosperity will be a reflection of the individuals encompassing the PSC "Team" who are committed to transform our ideas into realities. 1 1 PSC DEVELOPMENT COMPANY Creed It is our belief that when business is mixed with a public need, such as affordable housing, a sense of overall purpose and achievement is created within a company. At PSC, we feel we have enlisted this purpose and thus have been referred to as "Developers with a Conscience." We have committed our efforts and resources to public/private partnerships in an effort to help resolve the ever increasing challenge of providing low to moderate income housing. Our accomplishments have been on the cutting edge of The both public and private development ever shrinking CDevelopment publ c housing has been to supplement funds with private sector financial opportunities so as to devise housing commodities which can effectively compete in today's marketplace. We feel the solutions to problems existing as obstacles in the development of affordable housing must be generated through resourcefulness of the private sector development community. We are exhilarated about this opportunity and look forward to the challenges ahead in response to affordable housing needs. The success of PSC is due to the dedication of "getting the job done" as well as the g term Management Group, nt by o m Ever management entity, 9reene managing and servicing our properties. Peter S. Cooke Mark B. Cohen Helen G. Kessler PSC DEVELOPMENT COMPANY PSC Development Company is a full service development company actively involved in the acquisition, construction and management of multifamily housing. Since 1984, PSC has developed over $75 million in affordable housing developments. Our first innovative property, developed in 1987, was Hartland Apartments. Through the diligent efforts of PSC, Hartland Apartments was constructed with one of the largest ($5.6 million) Housing Development Action Grants (HDG) awarded by the Department of Housing mand arkeUrban Development rity nlap ent (HUD).comxes�due is unique in that it combines 45% assisted housing units with 60% t, to the integration of diverse socioeconomic families. Since then, PSC has developed a unique niche in the affordable housing market. PSC continues to be active in procuring low-income housing tax credits and preserving historic residences housing organization whoial areas' se PSC serves as consultant to Housing Corporation of America (HCA), a nonprofit9 9 goal is to successfully develop and manage affordable housing. In a continuing effort to minimize development costs and maximize quality, PSC has incorporated affiliate associations with experts in the fields of construction and management EVERGREENE CONSTRUCTION, L.C., specializes in new construction and renovation of affordable housing. Evergreene Construction has effected over $23 million in housing production over the past seven (7) years, with production ranging from single-family subdivisions to high density multi -family apartment communities. Attention to detail, budgetary monitoring and schedule of performance have made Evergreene Construction an industry leader. EVERGREENE MANAGEMENT GROUP, INC., has over ten (10) years of project management experience, specializing in the management of affordable housing units. It is the belief f Eoughr effective Managemeand ent that eat relief from the ever-increasing necessity for affordable housing come management combined with community involvement Evergreene currently manages 780 units in Utah and 678 units in California. At the end of 1995, with the addition of 261 units currently under construction, the total will escalate to a total of 1,700 affordable residence units. PSC HOMES was designed to create high quality "for sale" products which integrate into communities at prices below market competition while maintaining the highest quality of lifestyle. PSC Homes believes the best use of diminishing residential land is demonstrated through innovative design of multifamily buildings which compliment the community. PSC Homes' first ventures, The Courtyard at Pages Lane and The "estate"homes. This hepard k, are examples Of concept promotes multifamily design that have been interpreted at first glance as custom PSC\Broehu 1999 September 21, 1999 maintenance -free lifestyle at exceptional cost and provides superior value to purchasers as well as communities. ' PSC Homes hopes to create a milestone in sustainability". Sustainable development is defined as interdependency between social, economic and environmental resources. PSC Homes has found its position in the real estate industry by striking a balance between purchaser needs, municipality requirements and environmental preservation. The central focus of PSC Homes is two -fold: community and sustainability. Our strategy is to sell quality lifestyle first and homes second. Our emphasis is not on cost per square foot but rather quality / value per square foot Because PSC Homes was developed applying proven PSC philosophy our success was evident within the first 12 months of inception and implementation. PSC Homes enjoyed the phenomenal distinction of holding 20% 1 of the new housing sales made in Davis County for 1998 and 1999. I I I I I September 21, 1999 7 L PSC\Bmch= 1999 1 ' CORPORATE PROFILE APPROACH PSC Development Company enjoys the distinction as one of only a few successful "affordable housing" developers in the State of Utah over the past thirteen years. This characteristic is due in part to the constant effort required to remain "Developers with a Conscience". Many companies prefer to participate within the Intermountain affordable housing market in singular aspects, either as developer, contractor or management tagent of pride and achievement challenges which accompany ownership. PSC believes there associated with ownership accountability and is the premise which continues to guide our company. During PSC Developments extensive affordable ha sing experience, the processes required to d refined over the years resulting n our team effect successful project development have been practiced approach which: ' begins with extensive analysis to determine and provide efficacious financing proceeds to explore commendatory design including latest, most innovative ' housing applications which will promote meritorious integration into comnwnities continues through incorporation of proven construction methods with attention ' to cost efficiency, product durability, low maintenance requirements, and quality lifestyle detail integrates proven marketing techniques regarding "for sale" product at prices below market competition while maintaining the highest quality of lifestyle, ' and quality lifestyle detail, and concludes wig► professional, efficient and effective management services to ' ensure integrity and longevity of development These factors, combined with continuous dedication towards "getting the job done° allow PSC to ' resolve the ever increasing challenges in providing affordable, quality housing. 11 L CORPORATE PROFILE VIABIUTY As illustrated in the attached excerpts from our Corporate Resume, PSC Development owns and operates many successful properties each of which required unique resourcefulness and exceptional ntal obstacles in the development of affordable housing in the Salt proficiency to surmount copious monume Lake Intermountain region. Several properties are located within areas where appreciable negotiation was unity neighbors as well as municipal required to resolve zoning / density concerns expressed by comm affiliates. In each instance, harmonious resolutions were achieved whereby communities gained essential housing for their residents in the form of neighborhoods which actually enhanced the desirability and value of the area. A number of these municipal agencies, initially opposed to the development of affordable communities in their areas, now approach PSC with the request for development of additional properties due to the success and neighborhood benefit of these properties. One reason for this unusual situation is PSC's reputation for producing what they present In the words of one City Councilman, 'If PSC talks the talk, N walks the walkA. It is customary that upwards of 300 individuals comprise waiting lists at several PSC Development communities. PSC Development is accustomed to and comfortable in working with diverse municipalities, all possessing unique and varied restrictive development requirements. Great effort is taken in completing adequate "due diligence" prior to commitment for or undertaking of any development endeavor. This includes collection and review of appropriate demographic information. James A.

The fact that this parcel is located just five minutes from Park City and 30 minutes from downtown Salt Lake City without a traffic light makes it a very desirable residential development PSC Development in collaboration with P.S. Taggart Enterprises has carefully formulated an overall feeling and theme for this master development that will carry throughout the entire community. This vision will include a ranch -like design with focus on quality materials and aesthetic colors, which are compatible with the mountain terrain and ,great outdoors" surroundings. The Jordanelle Basin Land Use Plan and overlay zone passed by the Wasatch County Commission establishes a concise guide for land use, density as well as all details for improvements in the area. As a result of this new Area Plan and Zone, the Jordanelle Basin is destined to become one of the premier areas in the country in which to live. This master planned, multi -use community will begin construction fall of 1999. The many diverse products planned for the site will attract a wide range of purchasers thus making Deer Mountain much sought after as well as delightful, livable neighborhood. To ensure future value and integrity of this community all phases of development will be required to comply with Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CCR's). This will assure that all types of development and building style will be compatible and complement the quality feel and atmosphere designed by the PSC/Evergreen Team. Small LotslTvAn Homes. Approximately 54 small lots or twin home lots will be located along the downhill side of the loop road, along the Ross Creek knoll overlooking the entire Jordanelle Reservoir. These lots are proposed to span 8,000 to 14,000 square feet per side and will allow for a midrange product in the $200,000+ price range range. This is still well below the average price point so prevalent in the Snyderville Basin. The zoning provides a great deal of flexibility, allowing for appropriate design while offering a positive advantage in the present as well as anticipated future marketplace, considering competition product and cost Single Family Lots: Approximately 67 single-family lots consisting of .3 to .8 of an acre are planned for the upper slope. These incredible lots will have never ending views of the lake and mountains that will remain protected in perpetuity. Projected retail sales price between $80,000 to $100,000 per lot, which are projected to be sold to individual homebuyers. Estate Lots' roximately 36 The Estates at Deer Mountain will consist of app estate lots, planned with a minimum size of one acre ranging up to as much as 25 acres. The lots would sell in the range of $125,000 to $300,000. These lots will be developed and sold to individual homebuyers as well as to custom homebuilders. Townhomes: approximately 81 Keetiey Station at Deer Mountain encompasses app Townhomes planned for the lower slope closest to the highway. These will be condominium -type homes comprised of approximately 1300 to 1500 square feet Each townhome will feature a double car garage. Prices should average between $150,000 to $180,000. These are planned as recreational vacation homes as well as owner occupied condominiums. The design is planned around a `ski resort' scheme, which should add to the overall flavor of the master development Apartments: Todd Hollow at Deer Mountain is planned to encompass 184 apartment homes. The apartrnent site will comprise approximately 20-22 acres of land near the highway on the stream corridor. According to our timeline, we anticipate construction commencement during the fall of 1999. These apartment homes will be designed and built to a very high standard to attract the very selective renter. The Community Center will contain a beautiful recreation facility with pool/spa/exercise facility and business center. Additional amenities include tot lots, sports courts, walking and biking trails. Communk Center: The east entrance to Deer Mountain will accommodate a state of the art community center complete with swimming pool, sports courts, meeting and party rooms as well as exercise facilities. It is anticipated there will also be a business center where conference meetings can be held. Technological equipment will be available to accommodate computers, facsimile transmission and teleconference implements. Trails and Open Space: Throughout the 429 -acre site, PSC/Evergreens will construct a trail system and series of open space corridors where residents can hike, bike, ski and recreate. The grove of trees existing along the stream will offer excellent areas for picnics and cookouts as well as a place of quiet solitude. On Site Storage: In order to maintain the "resort / ranch" appearance planned at Deer Mountain, storage facilities constructed as barn structures will be strategically placed on site to accommodate storage for boats, RV's, snowmobiles and other household items. Deer Mountain promises to be one of the most spectacular master planned communities ever developed along the Wasatch Front The mix and diversity of the product, the management team that will shepherd this through the development stage, the unparalleled views and the proximity to Heber City, Park City and Salt Lake City (location, location, location) combine to give this site a true unfair advantage over competitive properties in the surrounding area.

Salt Lake City and the Orem-Provo areas are among the fastest growing regions in the country. The positive economy and promising growth outlook has caught the attention of many major businesses that are choosing to relocate here, as in the case of Micron. This positive expansion combined with present intrastate growth will amplify the already distressed environmental for affordable housing in this area. Mayflower is coalescent to Heather Estates in Clearfield, Utah, developed and construction by PSC Development and Evergreene Construction. Sixteen (16) buildings establish the 192 apartment homes of Mayflower Harbor which incorporate two, three and four-bedroom floor plans. Additional features include: balconies, walk-in pantries and washer -dryer hook-ups. Common amenities for the community include sports court, tot lot, barbecue and picnic areas, bicycle paths, jogging trails, clubhouse and park area. PSC Development in conjunction with SunAmerica Inc. and Bank of America was awarded tax-exempt bonds and federal low-income tax credits which will provide an equity investment into the project resulting in a lower cost of funds over taxable debt Through this process Mayflower Harbor will provide and maintain affordable rents in Utah County for the next 51 years.

Upon completion, Aspen Villas will accommodate 18 two-bedroom apartments consisting of 798 square feet and 70 three-bedroom apartments consisting of 954 square feet Six (6) handicap accessible units are also included in this development Full size washer/dryer units will be provided with a storage facility assigned to each unit The development has been designed to make construction as efficient as possible by repeating the same floor plan while at the same time providing quality lifestyle with private gardens, patio areas and unique cosmetic details which are cost effective to produce. Rents will be significantly below Park City's affordable housing rental guidelines. These rents will remain affordable for 50 years, as enumerated in the Deed Restrictions associated with the development Project design features including a clubhouse, tot lot, sport court and bike paths will create family community activities. Covered parking and additional storage facilities are included in this community which allows for free travel between all buildings. Park City, like many Utah localities, has an immense housing shortage, particularly at affordable levels, especially for their service employees such as fire fighters, peace officers, city workers and board of education employees. Land costs, zoning restrictions, impact fees, weatherization and building materials criteria are all significant factors in creating an abundance of supplementary costs compared to typical valley construction. Those costs make it difficult to finance and build housing at affordable levels in Summit County. September 20, 1999 , 1 4
